no yum.conf is stock (checked)
here is the output of yum check-update
azureus.x86_64 2.4.0.3-0.20060328cvs_ extras
ffmpeg.x86_64 0.4.9-0.21.20051228.lv livna
gwget.x86_64 0.97-3.fc5 extras
mplayerplug-in.x86_64 3.21-1.lvn5 livna
xine-lib.x86_64 1.1.1-5.lvn5 livna
xine-lib-devel.x86_64 1.1.1-5.lvn5 livna
----
rpm -q mplayerplug-in
mplayerplug-in-3.21-fc4
rpm -q mplayerplug-in --queryformat %{ARCH}
i386
