Then you add freshrpms to get something from there that livna doesn't have, and it starts updating your mplayer libraries. Pretty soon nothing is from any consistent source and your system is a mess. An updater that allowed package exclusions (or an "only these" inclusion list) on a per-repository basis would be a big help. Lacking that, I've often considered building my own local repository of just the stuff I want from other repos and using only that to update my system :-). -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
