And because we all know technology is perverse, vindictive, comedic and unreliable, you should maintain complete control (IMO) by doing what so many others have suggested (IIRC), similar to the below. In CentOS-Base.repo, for [base] and [update] add lines similar to this excludepkgs = firefox and in [centosplus] add a line like this includepkgs = firefox This prevents any updates to the base release from wiping out the version from plus.
