Using that change, yum updates almost woks. I am getting notices of
pending updates. But I get a missing dependency that says
xine-lib-extras-1.12...   depends on xine-lib(plugin ab) which makes no
sense from a naming standpoint and it can't be found. So far I proceeded
further by removing the xine-lib-extras rpm and redoing yum update.
Also the current xine-libs are 1.15 not 1.12 for what eveer that is
worth.

Any thoughts  out there?
