A quick way is to remove xmms from the rpm database listing
/var/lib/rpm.
I don't know if rpm allows you to install a package without adding it
to the rpm database. I have used midnight commander to extract files
to /usr/local/ for certain programs that I don't want rpm to update or
know about.

reinstall
the package using the rpm provided at the site so I can play mp3 files. How
do I stop this package from being updated and overwritten during nightly yum
updates so that I don't end up automatically going back to a fedora channel
distribution that can't play mp3 files?
