I wasn't very clear at first- I've modified a file that is provided by a package (/etc/X11/xinit/Xsession, provided by xorg-x11-xinit for fedora 13 for the curious) but when I update that package it copies over a new version of the file and removes my edits. I'm not looking to build my own RPM (which is my understanding of where the %config(noreplace) comes into play) but just somehow mark this file so it isn't changed. I can blacklist the whole package, but I'm looking for something a little more granular. I understand if it's something yum isn't capable of, I just haven't been able to find anything that says one way or the other.
