I'm trying to suppress updates to libsmbclient, and have edited /etc/yum.conf as shown below. It's not working, as is also shown below. The relevant repositories are those for fedora-9 and for fedora-9-updates architecture x64_64. Modifying the first exclude line to exclude=libsmbclient*-3.2.0-2.17* doesn't seem to work. $ more /etc/yum.conf [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum ... # Till the next version of samba-winbind comes out exclude=libsmbclient-3.2.0-2.17* exclude=samba-common-3.2.0-2.17* ... $ yum check-update Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit Excluding Packages in global exclude list Finished libsmbclient.x86_64 3.2.0-2.17.fc9 updates _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/mailman/listinfo/yum
