No, the repos should be fine (but you are living a bit dangerously
activating testing and bleeding repos).

But there is a bug in yum that is triggered by some of the repos most
notably ATrpms:

https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2005-January/msg01826.html
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=144376
http://bugzilla.atrpms.net/show_bug.cgi?id=289
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=140832

The bugs seems to have been fixed in yum's CVS, but there hasn't been
as yum release since. You can either use a CVS yum package from ATrpms:

   http://atrpms.net/name/yum-bleeding/

or use anyother resolver like apt or smart:

   http://atrpms.net/name/apt/
   http://atrpms.net/name/smart/
