I am including ATrpms repo at http://dl.atrpms.net/fc5-i386/atrpms/stable, in order to satisfy some requirements that appear when I use my usual set of repos, namely: core, extras, updates, gst, and livna. When I try to install using these repos, I get the following errors: Transaction Check Error: package libmad-0.15.1b-2 (which is newer than libmad-0.15.1-2.b.lvn5) is already installed package libdv-0.104-4.gst.1.5 (which is newer than libdv-0.104-3.fc5) is already installed package libtheora-1.0alpha6-2.gst.5 (which is newer than libtheora-1.0alpha5-1.2.1) is already installed These packages are all in the ATrpms repo, which unfortunately also includes mplayer-1.0-53_pre8.rhfc5.at.i386.rpm which (I suppose) yum is insisting on loading, despite the fact that mencoder and mplayer-gui both want the older version. So ... Do you know how to force yum or yumex to not load the ATrpms version of mplayer, while at the same time loading everything else from this repo? I have already tried adding: mplayer-1.0-53_pre8.rhfc5.at.i386.rpm mplayer-1.0-53_pre8.rhfc5.at.x86_64.rpm to the excludes list in yumex preferences with no result. Or alternately, is there a way to get yum to ignore the "which is newer" errors?
