It looks like synaptic will let me.. <SNIP> FWIW you are taken care of adaquately by just running yum, it will gracefully update anything that needs updating from Core, Extras and any "other" repos assuming you have properly configured it to do so. There is a possiblity that some of the other repos packages may conflice with Core/Extras (YMMV). As far as the duplicate rpms go keeping the newest version of each and doing rpm -e foo on the older of each pair should suffice.
