So, what is the correct plan to avoid getting a broken update onto a machine
you care about?
How did you know it was a broken update before you installed it?
That's a separate problem. It would be nice if only the first person to
try it had to experience the brokenness, but let's assume I have a test
machine and I'm the first to notice. How do I save my production
machine from the same fate (and on a side note, everyone else)?
Assuming you know ahead of time that specific updates are broken you can use
yum exclude directive to exclude specific packages
man yum.conf
That doesn't sound like something that scales very well. Can I get the
package set I want by excluding all other possibilities?
