+    <h3>Name clash warning</h3>
+
+    <p>There is identically named 'tor' package in the EPEL and Fedora
+    repositories. Due to this unfortunate name clash, the packages might
+    "update over one another", depending on patchversion.  Solution is to use
+    <tt>Exclude=tor</tt> line in the relevant <tt>/etc/yum.repos.d/</tt>
+    file.
+    </p> 
+    
+    <p>E.g. you may exclude EPEL's Tor package by putting the mentioned exclude
+    line under [epel] section in <tt>/etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo</tt>.
