Ah, I think you're on to something.  For completeness sake, here is the
snipped bit:

# yum update NetworkManager wireless-tools
Setting up Update Process
Setting up Repo:  k12ltsp
repomd.xml                100% |=========================|  951 B    00:00

repomd.xml                100% |=========================|  951 B    00:00
Reading repository metadata in from local files
k12ltsp   : ################################################## 2177/2177
base      : ################################################## 2622/2622
updates-re: ################################################## 654/654

If it isn't the Fedora repos, then it must be the k12ltsp repo that I use
for some eductaional software.  Checking that repo I see that
wireless-tools-28-0.pre4.1.fc3.i386.rpm is there.  I'll get in touch with
them and see what the situation is.  

Thanks for your help.
