Very possibly. The thing is, if Amarok uses MySQL, I am betting big

When you updated, yum just did its best to get you up to date according
the comps.xml file.
Does yum downgrade packages? I've installed RPMs with a higher version than
what's available from my configured repos (typically packages I've built
myself), and haven't seen yum try to replace them with down-level packages.
I'm suspecting that there's something fishy about the version information
in the installed package that caused yum to think the repo package was a
higher version. Was it installed from tarball, bypassing RPM, perhaps?
