I installed the previous update of pango over the new one with
rpm --upgrade --oldpackage pango*.rpm
after this the gnome desktop was not starting up at all. I found out that
libpangocairo.so was mssing. so I fixed it with reinstalling cairo with
rpm --upgrade --force cairo-1.0.4-1.i386.rpm
Now everything seems right. However I'm not sure if I did not break more
packages (apart from cairo)
