You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

If I do skip broken it installs ok but then I cant do updates for whatever reason

Like Andrew said, just add exclude=libmodplug to /etc/yum.repo.d/epel.repo and to /etc/yum.repo.d/epel-testing.repo.

This sort of thing is part of the repo game in CentOS. In my case, I couldn't install claws-mail until I gave EPEL priority over RPMfusion. Incidentally, have you set priorities for your repos?

You must set your YUM priorities and be very, very careful when mixing 3rd-party repos like EPEL and RPM Fusion that are not supported by CentOS:

if you are NOT very VERY careful with the 3d party repos and installing the video and music programs in Cent/RHEL/SL
you can VERY QUICKLY 100% mess up the install
listen to EVERY AND ALL warnings !!!!!

set up "yum-priorities"
