[PlanetCCRMA] yum dependency problem

Wen trying to install k3b onto my ccrma box, (yum install k3b), I end up with these error messages: 

Transaction Check Error:
  package libraw1394-1.2.1-11.1.fc7.ccrma (which is newer than libraw1394-1.2.1-11.fc7) is already installed
  package jack-audio-connection-kit-0.103.0-2.1.1015.svn.fc7.ccrma (which is newer than jack-audio-connection-kit-0.103.0-1.fc7) is already installed
  package libavc1394-0.5.3-1.1.fc7.ccrma (which is newer than libavc1394-0.5.3-1.fc6) is already installed

...now my question is: Is this purely a yum glitch or are the packages actually incompatible? If the former, I found an old post on how to solve this in apt (using the --oldpackage switch), but I can't find any yum counterpart to this switch.

could I solve this by 
1) forcing (yum -y) the fc packages (risks?)
2) finding a different cd/dvd burner that works with in the ccrma environment?

thanks for your input and apologies for the newbie-style...;-)
