Not really. People will run into those problems for 24 hours for all
updates with tight interdeps (gstreamer sometimes,
xine-lib-extras-freeworld, all kmod, and some other packages/kind of
updates), even if RPM Fusion works perfectly and pushes all updates at
exactly the same times as the associated package counterpart in Fedora.

We need a fix for that, as it's quite bad for Fedora's fame afics.
