Ok! NOW we're talking! At the beginning of the thread I think I asked
about other repositories. As I did not hear anything about that I
assumed Planet CCRMA was the only one. _That's_ where the extra gtk2 is
coming from! The other repository is not complete and is missing a
package that would satisfy the missing dependency. I'd suggest
contacting its mantainer (or it could also be that you do not have a
complete list of urls for the other repository).

Not necesssarily, it depends on the interplay of dependencies between
the repositories.

They probably could not be upgraded before because of conflicts with the
other repositories (just a guess).

As for this one you probably have a newer or incompatible version of
xmms than the one I have at Planet CCRMA, so that flac-xmms (which comes
from Planet CCRMA) cannot be installed and thus is kept back.

The upgrade (or attempt to upgrade) came from the other repository or
repositories. None of the Planet CCRMA rpms need it (otherwise it would
be part of Planet CCRMA!). Every time I add a package I also add all its
dependencies.

I see, if you are really curious enable them one at a time and you will
find where the newer gtk2 was coming from. That would be the respository
that is incomplete.
