Uh? kdemultimedia-extras is in FE6. Digging a bit, I see for F7 and newer it's obsolete, but not for FE6. Further, the latest is: kdemultimedia-extras-3.5.6-5.fc6 And not what the OP is seeing: kdemultimedia-extras-3.5.7-1.fc6 Perhaps this is kde-redhat. And then the mass-updates theory applies.
Also note that it has only been broken for 2 weeks for those who use updates-testing, the update only went to updates 1 week ago. So those who already had the breakage for 2 weeks deserve it.
Great attitude. NOT! Updates-testing is overrated. It is not known how few users actually have it enabled. Most Fedora users want stable updates, not broken stuff. Just for the record, I do have F7 updates-testing enabled, and I've reported breakage in the KDE 3.5.7 packages. But even with helper-scripts I would be overworked if I needed to check for conflicts and similar problems with the constant flow of updates. Seeing that some packagers still push ABI-incompatible updates to "stable", that is a big joke, IMO.
