yum update

I already had fuse installed. And alsa kmld was compiled by me (rc4) and
yum was willing to bring rc3 from ATrpms again.

And yes, I have priorities set. Core and extras 1, ATrpms 2, then the rest.
Maybe that was the reason ... but I do not want freshrpms, livna  and dries
replacing everything. I will have to think a better way to manage the extra
repos.
I need very, very few things of them.

I downloaded and installed fuse rpms by hand and then the update went just
fine.

The interesting point is that I did a similar update on a 32 bit FC6 and,
unless I was sleeping and did not see what happened, I had not this problem.

Thanks.
