Kaushik,

 It would appear that you need to remove at least the npapi-vlc for fc17 (and probably should remove the mplayer-doc, python-vlc,
and qtractor for fc17 packages as well just to get back to cleaner system).  Then npapi-vlc won't have to get updated and that
gpgcheck error won't come thru. 

Actually, if you are trying to get to a rawhide-free system you may want to do an "rpm -qa | grep fc17" to get a list of the
packages you have installed from rawhide and then remove those (there's nothing inherently wrong with having rawhide packages
installed as long as you know what you are getting into...sometimes those packages have updates that fix issues that you are having
and that will never get back into the FC level you happen to be working in...just make sure you only install what you need if you
are going to "extend" into the rawhide space).  Just beware of all of the dependency issues you may run into.

And now, a rant of my own.

If people would get off of their soapboxes and actually help out this list would be a lot more helpful for those that are fairly new
to Fedora and/or are trying to learn and get better at using/administering it.  We were all new once and needed help along the way. 
Constructive help instead of preaching typically works better at teaching.
