You could try going one step down and trying to install the affected
packages, for example libcroco* probably belongs to the package
libcroco, so you could try "apt-get install libcroco" to see what is
holding it. Same with libcr* (I don't know which package those belong
to, I don't have fc3 up and running right now). 

What does apt suggest if you run "apt-get -f install"? It may want to
erase half the packages so don't say yes without taking a close look at
what it wants to do :-)
