Here is a list which states mono-core is needed. I see a gtk package 
listed below. One of these non-mono packages is probably the culpret.
You stated that you used --exclude=mono-core. What is to say that 
mono-core was not still pulled in, even with the exclude command, if 
another updated package still required it. Up2date would have failed by 
past experience. The nature of this true exclusion caused problems for 
me once. If yum disregards or does not regard the exclusion, it sounds 
feature rather than bug for me.
