I use both Planet CCRMA and FreshRPMs for a year and a half.  I've only 
had one legitimate conflict (it was last week), and I told Fernando at 
Planet and he's on it; but I don't think it actually ever prevented me 
from installing or running any other software, it just kept me from 
updating that particular package.  He has also been working to 
coordinate with Matthias at FreshRPMs.
