Hi
And yet it frequently happens with the GFS related kernel module
packages. Security kernel fixes which go directly into
updates-released inevitable cause the GFS and related kernel module
packages to be out of sync in updates-released.
GFS kernel modules not being in sync is not much of a regression. Its a
known issue documented to a extend in the release notes.
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc4/#sn-kernel
Similar dependencies are there for the Xen kernel too. Any out of tree
kernel modules are only going to get sorted when FESCO comes out with a
packaging decision on that or better yet when they get merged upstream.
If partial upgrade option doesnt sound good to have an alternative could
be a plugin that provides a option to exclude a package and all its
dependencies in a repository. Instead of changing the exclude options
behavior a new one like
excludedeps=gtk2
for example can exclude GTK2 and all it dependencies. You can fiddle
around with repoquery and figure this out but this is potentially much
easier.

Rahul
