I'm innocent, I swear!

At one point, all I wanted to do was install Amarok, the KDE MP3 player. 
But the download instrictions said I needed to install another 
repository, I couldn't just download a single RPM. So then I did a yum 
update, and it did a whole bunch of stuff, including update KDE to 3.4, 
and probably a whole mess of stuff I didn't want or need it to do. All I 
wanted was an MP3 player, and I got a whole new interface as well.

So, anyway, I ran yum list extras, and I got a bunch of results. But I 
can't tell if any of them would be particularly problematic.

[root at localhost ~]# yum list extras
