Mix-matching various repositories can be dangerous. Somewhere along the
way it looks like your rpm package got upgraded. Maybe if you revert it
back to the current package from Fedora repository it would fix your
problem.

Not all repos are tested to work together properly. You have to be very
careful when mix-matching repositories.
