Ah... ok.

You have a few more options. Depending on dependencies (no pun intended 
:-) it might be possible to just install the Fedora 19 packages. You 
could install the fc19 planetccrma-repo rpm and edit the repositories to 
point to 19 even if you are in 20. And then cross fingers and yum install...

Another would be to try to rebuild the source .src.rpm packages. Should 
be pretty easy for chuck, pd-extended is usually more involved.
