yum-versionlock.conf

YUM-VERSIONLOCK.CONF(5) 					   File Formats 					   YUM-VERSIONLOCK.CONF(5)

NAME

       yum-versionlock.conf(5)

SYNOPSIS

       yum-versionlock.conf(5)	is  the configuration file for yum-versionlock(1) Yum plugin for excluding packages that aren't listed in the ver-
       sionlock file.  The plugin will walk each line of the versionlock file, parse out the name and version of the package. It will then exclude
       any  package  by  that  name that doesn't match one of the versions listed within the file (or, optionally, any obsoleter of that package).
       This is basically the same as doing an exclude for the package name itself (as you cannot exclude installed packages), but yum  will  still
       see the versions you have installed/versionlocked as available so that "yum reinstall" will still work, etc.  It can also work in the oppo-
       site way, like a fast exclude, by prefixing a '!'  character to the version.

FILES

       /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.conf

FILE FORMAT

       yum-versionlock.conf(5) utilizes configuration options in the form of

       OPTION=VALUE

OPTION

       follow_obsoletes
	      This option is a boolean flag which specifies if the versionlock plugin should look at all the obsoletes, and  see  if  any  of  the
	      packages	specified  have  an obsoleter. If an obsoleter is found then all versions of that package will be excluded. This option is
	      off by default, as yum-versionlock(1) will take some time to do the obsoletes processing, and for non-rename  obsoletes  any  issues
	      you had which kept you at a specific version of a package should be different with another package.

OPTION

       locklist
	      This  option  is a string with points to the file which will have the versionlock information in it. Note that the file has to exist
	      (or the versionlock plugin will make yum exit). However it can be empty.
