You "can do" many things, but I have proved the hard way that mixing Fedora and 
non-Fedora repos can result in unintended behavior. Libraries from good source 
like rpmfusion may not be incorrect, but they can be incompatible.

The issue with repomd.xml reflecting two dates, both old, is another hint. I've 
asked about that myself, no one has provided an explanation or a better 
workaround than backing up and reinstalling. Once messed up there seems no 
rational way to get proper updating restored.

Feel free to help Gerhard if you disagree.
