Ignore Yum's request to report it there. If everybody reported dependency
errors there, the tracker would be flooded with issues that cannot be fixed
by Yum upstream.

A packaging mistake in compiz-fusion-extras. Next time report it at
http://bugz.fedoraproject.org/compiz-fusion-extras

I've done it for this issue: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/767138

rpm -e libpanelappletmm

Looks like a dead package that hasn't been updated for the newer
libpanel-applet library ABI/API. Possibly add any package to the rpm -e
that depends on this.

You can run Yum queries to examine whether a package still exists in the 
repositories. Additionally queries, such as "yum list extras" can also
be helpful. They are explained in the manual.
