This is caused by a packaging bug. They should not ship the x-mplayer2.desktop file in kdelibs nor in kaffeine, but rather have it in mplayer where it belongs. This should be handled in the %install section for these packages.

Thanks for the information. Is there a way to clear out the transaction information, so yum is no longer looking for kaffeine and the kde library files at all?

I'll keep trying to Google for a solution.

Again, thanks.
