Before you showed me how to set up yum.conf. I attempted to get it
to go to the right tree by editing /etc/fedora-release.

I tried setting the file back to original state but yum isn't

it. Finally I tried installing the fedora-release in rawhide.
Still yum errors out on release problem. Finally I tried updating to
most recent yum, but it still errors out on `release'.
Any idea how I can fix that and get on trying the upgrade?
Your setup looks extremely messy.
Since you've manally changed /etc/fedora-release file - it was not
updated (when you installed the new rpm) . You'll have to do something
like:
mv /etc/fedora-release.rpmnew /etc/fedora-release
can you also do the following (and send the info)?
rpm -q fedora-release
rpm -V fedora-release
