You have to find the package that is pulling it in as a dependency and
exclude that. What I would try first is to do a yum erase ConsoleKit and
see what else it wants to erase. Then exclude those packages as well.
I tried this on a headless machine I have running and got the following
results:
Removing:
ConsoleKit x86_64 0.4.1-3.el6 @anaconda-CentOS-201112102333.x86_64/6.2 263 k
Removing for dependencies:
hal x86_64 0.5.14-11.el6 @anaconda-CentOS-201112102333.x86_64/6.2 1.2 M
hal-info noarch 20090716-3.1.el6 @anaconda-CentOS-201112102333.x86_64/6.2 310 k
pm-utils x86_64 1.2.5-9.el6 @anaconda-CentOS-201112102333.x86_64/6.2 254 k
polkit x86_64 0.96-2.el6_0.1 @anaconda-CentOS-201112102333.x86_64/6.2 601 k
While you might be able to run without polkit and pm-utils, I suspect that
you most likely want the hal packages.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
