It's the other way around afaics for Keith -- yum on his machine sees 
the newly xine-lib-extras-nonfree from livna (¹), but doesn't see the 
matching xine-lib from Fedora updates newkey (yet).

This is one of the problems I described in: 
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2008-August/msg00041.html

I currently tend to say the problem should be fixed in yum.

update was announced on fedora-package-announce-list
