I use "exclude=*releases" so I no repository release package (like
"centos-release", or "epel-release") will update/install *.repo files in
/etc/yum/repos.d/ and in doing so add repository entries not controled
by me.
But there is an error I just saw, it should be "exclude=*release",
without the trailing "s". I will have to fix this as soon as possible.
Explanation:
When I install CentOS systems, I move original *.repo files to backup
subdirectory because they do not contain "Enabled=" and "Priorities="
lines, and leave only my own .repo file. If there is no
"exclude=*release" line, then next update of xxx-release would see that
their .repo files are missing and would reinstall them. "New" .repo
files would then circumvent priorities plugin and all my work was for
nothing.
