One thing I noticed above is that the mime-type "text/html" means the
link that RB is trying to open isn't an audio file or playlist, which,
if you're trying to pick up a MP3-format broadcast, should be
something like audio/x-mp3, audio/x-m3u, or audio/x-mpegurl.  You
might want to check the URL.

A 'yum-complete-transaction' might help in this case, or
'package-cleanup'.
