Hi Michael. I'm short on ideas here, but just a thought. Have you got any 
other repo's apart from the planetccrma ones uncommented, and perhaps been 
getting updates from them? Which versions of "apt" and "synaptic" are 
installed? Mine are.
apt-0.5.15cnc6-4.rhfc4.ccrma
synaptic-0.55.3-1.rhfc4.ccrma

Does "apt-get" work on the CLI, or is this just a synaptic problem?
