Yes, that is what I did (yum itself suggested it). However, that was easy only because I was running yum by hand; I wonder what happens to people who have things set up to update automatically, or who use graphical frontends.

PackageKit and frontends automatically use skip-broken by default so wouldn't have a problem. It is possible to set skip-broken=1 in /etc/yum.conf as well. In any case, the problem has been fixed and an update is available at

Should hit the updates repo soon.
