You should "rpm -e alsa-kernel-2.4.26-1.ll.rhfc1.ccrma"

Maybe you should do a blanket:
  rpm -q -a | grep rhfc1
to get all packages that were part of Planet CCRMA on fc1, erase them
("rpm -e") and the reinstall from the Planet CCRMA fc4 repository. 

Or, as you say below, reinstall from scratch fc4. 
I'd probably try to erase all rhfc1 packages before trying a reinstall.
