Now that I've finished and added the Fedora Core channels back to

packages.
Does anyone know a way around this?
You need to use a rather long excludes line in yum or similar "pinning" type features of other package managers to prevent packages being pulled from the core repositories and breaking your nice JPackage setup.
e.g.:
[base] name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - Base exclude=ant,ant-optional,junit, etc. etc.
(Remember to add the line to the Fedora Updates repository entry too)
