FC13-i686 I do not want to update the Fedora kernel, kernel-headers. I put in yum.conf and yumex.conf , exclude=kernel and exclude=kernel-headers but yumex still tries to update the kernel. Why ? I do not have any kmods or kernel-devel installed yumex] autorefresh = 1 recentdays = 14 proxy = exclude = kernel exclude = kernel-headers debug = 0 color_install = darkgreen color_update = red color_normal = black color_obsolete = blue plugins = 1 yumdebuglevel = 2 yum.conf [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum/$basearch/$releasever keepcache=0 debuglevel=2 logfile=/var/log/yum.log exactarch=1 obsoletes=1 gpgcheck=1 plugins=1 installonly_limit=3 color=never exclude=kernel exclude=kernel-headers # This is the default, if you make this bigger yum won't see if the metadata # is newer on the remote and so you'll "gain" the bandwidth of not having to # download the new metadata and "pay" for it by yum not having correct # information. # It is esp. important, to have correct metadata, for distributions like # Fedora which don't keep old packages around.
