I just tried using smart, and when I get to the "smart upgrade", I get
the following messages:
Upgrading packages (1):
  mjpegtools-1.9.1-13_cvs20060213.rhfc4.at at i386

Removed packages (4):
  mythdvd-0.18.1-116.rhfc4.at at i386       mythtv-suite-0.18.1-56.at at i386
  mythplugins-0.18.1-116.rhfc4.at at i386   transcode-1.0.2-22.rhfc4.at at i386

(I didnt actually hit Y to confirm the changes though).

I kind of like the result of yum better - that didnt try to remove
anything when the mjpegtools upgrade failed...
