Yes. You have the rpmforge repository as well. Add a line

exclude=perl-DBIx-SearchBuilder

to that repository file. The rpmforge version is newer than the version
in the RT repository, but does require perl(DBD::Oracle).

After that you can use yum normally.

I'd see that as a bug in the package on rpmforge.
