As I've installed Open Office and Mplayer from non-official sources, I must exclude them each time I update with yum. Is there a place that I can configure yum so that --exclude=mplayer* and --exclude=openoffice* will always be considered?
There isnt any "official" Fedora mplayer package. For a permanent exclude put "exclude= package x, package y .." in /etc/yum.conf. See #man yum.conf for details.
