The original problem is that you mixed fedora.us packages with
ATrpms
packages.
That doesn't work. You need to uninstall all fedora.us (or pre-extras)
packages before you use the ATrpms packages, or the other way around. Or
manually download the ATrpms packages without using yum.
Mixing repos will cause all sorts of problems.

Hello Max!
Exactly that is the downside I see with populating this *example*
http://www.fedorafaq.org/samples/yum.conf
file. People get it, use it as it is and even enable preset repositories
because it is easy to do so.
Don't get me wrong. I like the unofficial Fedora FAQ site much and your
work. But the yum.conf there was never taken as an example file by the
users.
Maybe you should insert there a clear warning about consequences
enabling all repositories in there. And a comment about choosing more
local mirrors (i.e. European users should use European mirrors mainly).
Although I fear commenting text is mostly ignored.

Alexander
