You can put an exclude= line in /etc/yum.conf to
exclude packages from being updated, or you can
yum erase the fedora gthumb rpm.

Both of these techniques have problems of course
if there are dependencies involved that prevent
other things from being updated or force other
packages to be removed.

There is also the "big hammer" I use sometimes:

A yum plugin that runs my hook to put things yum
might have just changed back the way I want them
every time yum runs :-).
