This is definitely not mixing repositories. The packages you find in rpmfusion-free-updates-testing are the exact same packages that will go into the "stable" rpmfusion-free-updates repository once they passed QA. Packages from -testing are build against packages from stable, so it won't break dependencies. Testing packages from -testing actually helps getting them into stable faster. The --enablerepo=rpmfusion-free-updates-testing switch ensures this repository will be enabled only for this yum run. Regards, Xavier
