Exclude them both: # yum --enablerepo=updates-testing --exclude=libgssapi --exclude=nfs-utils-lib update The nfs-utils-lib and libgssapi updates should be accompanied by an nfs-utils package built against them. It's the absence of that that's the problem - your already-installed nfs-utils is linked against versions of nfs-utils-lib and libgssapi that would be removed by the updates to those packages. Paul.
