Thanks for the response.  I guess I'm a little confused though.  I've
always had these two repos enabled under FC4 without any issues.  I
haven't added any packages, at least not intentionally, to cause these
conflicts.  I know I still have some FC4 packages installed from these
repos that don't have FC6 versions out yet, but I'm not sure if that
is the cause of the problem.  If I'm understanding you correctly I
need to disable one of these repos in order to avoid the conflicts.

Thanks,
John
