In my case I'm using the centosplus repository as I needed newer versions of MySQL & PHP. The main CentOS repo config file '/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo' has an entry for the centosplus repository & lists specific packages that should be included. Here's the relevant lines: #additional packages that extend functionality of existing packages [centosplus] name=CentOS-$releasever - Plus enabled=1 priority=2 protect=1 includepkgs=php* mysql* The repo is enabled so I don't have to keep using the '--enablerepo=' switch when running yum. More importantly the "includepkgs=" line includes only those packages I want from the centosplus repository. Those same packages are excluded from the base entry: [base] priority=1 protect=1 exclude=php* mysql* You'll have to adjust the repo name / config & desired packages for your setup, but see if this doesn't help. -Eric -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
