The only plugin I have installed is refresh-packagekit.  However, I just
erased Ekiga & the two dependencies, did a yum clean all, and when I
reinstalled Ekiga, no filelists were pulled, so whatever was happening
is no longer, so I guess that's a good thing.

For future reference, would it be better (this is my ignorance asking)
for a dependency to be on a library (x.so.n) or on a package
name/version combination (x.version)?
