I think the problem with yum and the skip-broken resides because of
these dep errors put out by package-cleanup. Why the packages all
installed with a one by one script confused me.
Missing dependencies:
Package gnome-applets requires libgucharmap.so.5
Package frysk requires libgcj.so.7rh
locate libgucharmap.so
/usr/lib/libgucharmap.so.6
/usr/lib/libgucharmap.so.6.0.1
locate libgcj.so
/usr/lib/libgcj.so.8rh
/usr/lib/libgcj.so.8rh.0.0
Maybe you just got lucky, as I am currently upgrading gucharmap and
libgcj (and the new versions of frysk and gnome-applets too!)and I used
the yum --skip-broken.
The yum plugin seems to work quite a bit faster for me, but I'm still
not convinced it's properly excluding some packages that it should and
at least 2 packages it has seriously broken yum to the point that yum
threw a python exception.

It was either luck or the one by one script that I used. to finish up
the packages starting with g. I got most of the others installed wit a-f
and k-z requests prior to running the script.
I have just checked in a smarter edition of the skip-broken plugin in
yum-utils upstream CVS.
The output from the plugin is now much better.
I you want to test it you can grab it here.
http://devel.linux.duke.edu/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/yum-utils/plugins/skip-broken/
Just copy the .py file to /usr/lib/yum-plugins and the .conf to
/etc/yum/plugin.conf.d

I downloaded the CVS version also so I can try it when the next update
run has conflicts. There are 80 packages currently being installed
without present conflict.
