It
shouldn't be trying to update that if yum-protectbase is installed and configured properly. Right now I'm looking into seeing if automatic updates tries to install it for some reason, even when protectbase is working with a
yum update.
EDIT: Argh ... I keep getting mixed results with this ... I run yum update, it pulls just the latest packages in YDL's updates ... I run the package updater from the applications menu, it tells me it wants to update packages from fedora-extras (which it should NOT) ... I run yum update from the terminal again it says no updates found, run pup from GUI again, no updates found ... clean the yum cache ... still works fine
EDIT2: I think I can reproduce this problem now ... with yum-protectbase installed, and yellowdog-base, yellowdog-extras, yellowdog-updates, and ps3bodega protected, fedora-extras NOT protected ...
Disable the fedora-extras repo, run yum clean all, run Software Updater from GUI (no updates found), enable fedora-extras again, run Software Updater from GUI again ... now it shows updates available from fedora-extras (which we don't want)
But then I close pup and run a yum update and no updates are shown:
