The problem is that that nautilus-cd-burner.i386 0:2.15.3-1 
( despite it's version number ) provides 
libnautilus-burn.so.4.  The messages you're getting is that 
*installed* banshee and gnome-media  need so.3, which would 
be replaced if you updated.

To me, this is yum's greatest failing - not distinguishing - 
or at least not describing to the user - dependency 
conflicts between installed and to-be-updated packages.
