Jpackage is a big yum/apt/urpmi repo with java-centered packages. The
page seems to be broken, to see what it provides look at google's cache:

This is the repo of Axel Thimm. It would be better to ask him for the
correct yum entry to get the "common"-packages working. I'm always using
apt, so I'm not very familiar with yum.conf.

multimedia-fedora without using a lot of repos...

Looks like ccrma is apt-only so you have to use apt or ignore ccrma in
your howto.
