yum-arch is deprecated, createrepo is to be used.

You did read that line above? It points to the fact that with yum on FC3
repositories are defined in repo files below the directory
/etc/yum.repos.d/.

Because you have repo files below /etc/yum.repos.d and there is a)
[base] already defined and b) gpgcheck set on.

It fails simply because you have to use the proper path to the gpg key
file.
