A friend of mine ran into this yesterday, and we found out that until
some package or other is rebuilt, you probably need this:

http://koji.russianfedora.ru/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1917

I can't vouch for this package or the provider -- my buddy was
desperate and willing to live with the consequences.  As I told him, I
have no idea whether there will be a clean upgrade path from this to
whatever RPMfusion provides to deal with the issue (if they decide to
do so).
