Ok....
I'll do so.
Excuse me, if I have used improperly this "professional" list, but I 
thought that it was a general problem not only an end-user problem.
I use Fedora from three years.
I have learned to use unix/linux (Fedora core) during my thesis work in 
Brera Astronomy Observatory and now I use it in my private notebook.
On the net I discovered and use many useful instructions for install and 
use Fedora sistem.
Particularly this site:
http://stanton-finley.net/fedora_core_5_installation_notes.html
....a site that I think many end-user known very well.
 From this site I learned notices about  Fedora repo's problem (Livna's 
repos, Atrpm's repos versus other repos....)
Also in this site (like in  fedora's forum) I've learned about use of 
yum and about compatibility with fedora core's repo.
Like many and many others end-users.
So I don't expect to have "stable" problems with identical group of 
packages of different but  "recommended" repos.
(Naturally I don't think that Mr. Finley or others want damage Fedora 
group or their users)
I think that actually there is too confusion on this side.
Linux has still many distributions.... if now we see also the 
multiplication of version of the same packages in the same 
distributions.....
............I don't write any more!!!
I only say that I DON'T want use Windows XP that I HAVE HAD to buy with 
my notebook.

I'm gratefully to you for your answer and to the other partecipant at 
the list for your ospitality.
