Protectbase Plugin not working?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Alle,

	I have installed and enabled (I think) the yum protectbase plugin:

[cwfox@lurker ~]$ rpm -qa | grep -i protectbase
yum-plugin-protectbase-1.1-1.c4
[cwfox@lurker ~]$ cat /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/protectbase.conf
[main]
enabled = 1
[cwfox@lurker ~]$ grep plugin /etc/yum.conf
plugins=1
[cwfox@lurker ~]$ cat /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo
<SNIP>
[base]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Base
mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os
#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4
protect=1
</SNIP>

	However, when I do yum check-update as in the following example, there 
are zero package exclusions and the Dag repo package for rsync (which is 
a CentOS base package, I believe) is listed:

[cwfox@lurker ~]$ sudo yum check-update --enablerepo=dag rsync
Loading "protectbase" plugin
Loading "fastestmirror" plugin
Setting up repositories
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Reading repository metadata in from local files
0 packages excluded due to repository protections

rsync.i386                               2.6.8-1.el4.rf         dag
[cwfox@lurker ~]$ rpm -qi rsync

	Shouldn't this package from the Dag repository be on the exclusion list 
or am I misunderstanding the way protectbase is supposed to work?

Best Regards,
Camron
