Repository mixing doesn’t work

Cautionary tale as to why you should not mix repositories. Dag might have some fun stuff, but it doesn’t play well with fedora.us stuff, sometimes. I had already removed it from my yum.conf, and I also got rid of the stuff in /var/cache/yum. Came home (after watching Kill Bill: Vol. 2) to a machine that had gone off with the power failure. Horror, Galeon wouldn’t start!

Good thing ~/.galeon/session_crashed.xml is nice and readable so I backed that up. The daunting task of removing GAIM, Mozilla, Epiphany, and some other depends, and then re-installing them with pristine fedora.us stuff took a few good moments. I still have 12 packages with the dag tag, so I’ll work on solving that later.
