Fueled by the logical conundrum, I went to one of the official mirrors,
grabbed the xine-lib package, and tried to install it.  RPM said that my
 F9 version was newer than my F10 version; I did it again with --force.
 This allowed me to update libcaca without a problem.  We'll see if I
screwed anything else, but for now it seems OK.
