I'm using the Livna package, and I thing that the most Fedora users are

I would say that it is very recommend to use Livna. So, install it, it
will never ever be a disadvantage.

I must be in a minority.
I only update from the standard core/updates/extras repositories
(which I get from a local repository).
While I have the .repo files for livna, freshrpms, dries, dag, etc,
they are all disabled (enabled=0) and I would only install
individual packages from these repositories (yum --enablerepo=livna)
as and when required.
