I hope everyone is doing well. I have a problem. I am using the
"updates-testing" repo. A number of packages in there are ones I find
useful. But, over the last few weeks, when I do a yum -y update, it fails
with:

I tried to do a "yum install libgssapi", but that doesn't work (already
installed). If I try to exclude packages, I believe yum will only let me
do one. So, if I tell it to ignore nfs-utils lib, then it still fails
because it couldn't find libgssapi. If I try to exclude libgssapi,
nfs-utils croaks, of course. So...what to do?
Exclude them both:
# yum --enablerepo=updates-testing --exclude=libgssapi
--exclude=nfs-utils-lib update
The nfs-utils-lib and libgssapi updates should be accompanied by an
nfs-utils package built against them. It's the absence of that that's
the problem - your already-installed nfs-utils is linked against
versions of nfs-utils-lib and libgssapi that would be removed by the
updates to those packages.
Yep, and this has been that way for a few weeks. I should file a
bugzillalalalla entry for it. In any case, it worked. Thank you for your
help! --exclude did the trick for the individual ones. I didn't know the
syntax allowed that; I thought it only let you exclude one set of
packages.
