1. There were two non-standard repositories in the yum output:
>>> dries 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00
>>> newrpms.sunsite.dk 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00
2. The yum output said it was going to update icewm:
>>> ---> Package icewm.i386 0:1.2.23-1.2.fc4.rf set to be updated
3. I googled for "icewm-1.2.23-1.2.fc4.rf" and saw that specific
file was found in a repository called "dries".
4. I checked newrpms.sunsite.dk and it did not contain an
icewm package.
Therefore, it must have been the "dries" repository.
If this were my own machine, I would have simply ran "yum list updates"
and seen which repository was the guilty party. Something like:
# yum list updates | grep icewm
icewm.i386 0:1.2.23-1.2.fc4.rf dries
