I hope you don't have all those repos enabled!!! If you do,
you've answered your own question - you're also opening yourself
up to huge problems.
You should start with fedora-core, fedora-extras, and
fedora-updates enabled. After you've done some due research, you
have to decide between livna and freshrpms/dries - don't enable
both. Development repos should not be enabled except for very
specific, well researched, reasons - they are the leading edge
of new software being developed, and are prone to many problems.
Others will chime in, I'm sure.
