It's a yum repository. See http://lwn.net/Articles/116805/ .

It recommends putting this into /etc/yum.conf:

[pre-extras]
name=Pre Extras
baseurl=http://fedoraproject.org/pre-extras/3/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1

Why, I'm not sure: I've put it into a new file named
/etc/yum.repos.d/pre-extras.repo .

Set it up, and then the yum install command you listed should work.
