Having both Dag's and FreshRPM's repos in your yum.conf at the same time 
is begging for trouble.  They don't communicate to make sure that their 
packages are compatible (unlike, say fedora.us + Extras), so downloading 
packages X, Y, and Z from one then P, Q, and R from the other is likely 
to eventually cause issues.
