NAME

       yum-versionlock - Version lock rpm packages

SYNOPSIS

       yum-versionlock [ package-name [ package-name]] ...

DESCRIPTION

       yum-versionlock(1)  is  a  Yum  plugin  that  takes  a  set of name/versions for packages and excludes all other versions of those packages
       (including optionally following obsoletes).  This allows you to protect packages from being updated by newer versions.

       The plugin provides a command "versionlock" which allows you to view and edit the list of locked packages easily.
	yum versionlock add <package-wildcard>...

       Add a versionlock for all of the packages in the rpmdb matching the given wildcards.   yum versionlock exclude <package-wildcard>...

       Add a exclude (within versionlock) for the latest versions of the packages in the available repos. matching the given wildcards.   yum ver-
       sionlock list

       List the current versionlock entries.   yum versionlock delete <entry-wildcard>...

       Remove any matching versionlock entries.   yum versionlock clear

       Remove all versionlock entries.

FILES

       /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.conf
	      The system wide configuration file. See yum-versionlock.conf(5) for more information.
       /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.list
	      The default place to put package version lock information (one package and version per. line). The file takes entries in the follow-
	      ing format EPOCH:NAME-VERSION-RELEASE.ARCH See rpm(8) for more information on custom query formats. If the package does not have	an
	      EPOCH the number will default to 0.
