If you look carefully at that repo, you will notice that 0.8 is for EL 5 
and below.  If you are getting 1.1, I am guessing you are on EL 6. 
There are ways to specify versions/roll back, but in this case I don't 
think it is a good idea to mix packages like that.

If you are feeling adventurous you could try it I guess.  Just include 
the full release info in the package name I think.
kaffeine-0.8.7-1.el5.rf.x86_64

Alternately, you can just download by hand and toss it in with yum or 
rpm.  If you have automated yum updates, it will get caught and upgraded 
unless you exclude/blacklist it.
