I have th exact same conflict with ppp and initscripts bumping heads. also a problem with xine-lib not installing.

Being this was an update on a regular repo, it alarmed me. Running clamav (nothing found) and checkrootkit (11 hidden ps processes, possible LKM trojan) didn't add to the comfort level.
------------------- Checking `lkm'... You have 11 process hidden for readdir command You have 11 process hidden for ps command Warning: Possible LKM Trojan installed ----------------------- chkrootkit-0.43-2.1.fc2.dag was just installed and run.
The problem with initscripts and ppp is know. Check https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=127554 . It's been closed with "works for me" , so it still happens , we need to get it reopened...
The problem xine-lib probably is related to something else.. Which error do you get? Where you got the package?
And about checkrootkit: It never gave good results on FC1 , so I never cared to run it on FC2. Try to use verbose mode to get the PID of the processes . Then , do a cat /proc/PID/status and see if it's a valid process . Most of the times , it's only a real program... (Most of the times , it was xmms here... also evolution , ypbind and a few other things...)
