Do you have the rpmforge repo enabled? That could be causing some of your difficulties.
Indeed I do, as suggested in the wiki. Since this box is for my wife, packages for mp3 and wmv files were important.

It is usually safer to add the outside repos disabled, and install extras with the --enablerepo command.
We also have "yum-priorities" plugin (named "yum-plugin-priorities" on CentOS-4) that will prevent updates from 3rd Party repos to anything with a higher priority.
