Hey, First of all i hope this is the right place to ask this. Imagine that i want to make a Fedora Derivative distro and add in packages that fedora has only than with other things in it.. for example k3b but than with ffmpeg support (something i can do because i don't live in the us but fedora can't because of possible us law restrictions?) how would i do that in a Fedora Derivative? i mean.. if i type: "yum -y install k3b" and the version number of the fedora k3b package is higher/newer than the version in my repository than the one from fedora is being installed/updated. Now i could of cause add exclude=k3b in the fedora.repo file but that exclude list would get quite large with a full distro and yum would get alot slower but it would prevent fedora files from installing and allow my files to be installed. or is there some "priority" setting in yum? With priority i mean this: fedora.repo has: k3b-5.5.5 mark.repo has k3b-4.4.4 but has the priority over all other .repo files and this one gets installed. The yum manual doesn't say anything about this. the closest is --exclude is something like that available? I hope that it's clear what i try to ask. (for now) i don't have the intention to make a distro of my own but who knows how the future looks ^_^ -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
