Expected results:


Additional info:

I take the occasion form these days situation where for dependency conflict, I
cannot upgrade totem, because rythmbox requires a minor version of a library
provided with totem itself.
All other packages installed on my system are syncronized with mirrors.
I have also a local directory with all updated rpms in it, rsynced.
Here below some commands and comments:
1) yum update
gives dependency error

2) yum update --exclude=totem\*
ok.

3) yum localupdate *rpm
gives dependency error

4) yum localupdate *rpm --exclude=totem\*
Same as 3). It gives message:
Excluding Packages in global exclude list
but it seems it doesn't use it actually.
The same if I give: yum localupdate --exclude=totem\* *rpm

BTW: note also that for "localupdate" in 3) and 4) it tries to install kernel
that is already installed on the system, while in "update" mode it is ok.

See below extended output.

Comment 1 Rahul Sundaram 2006-02-20 11:15:09 UTC 

These bugs are being closed since a large number of updates have been released
after the FC5 test1 and test2 releases. Kindly update your system by running yum
update as root user or try out the third and final test version of FC5 being
released in a short while and verify if the bugs are still present on the system
.Reopen or file new bug reports as appropriate after confirming the presence of
this issue. Thanks
Comment 2 Jeremy Katz 2006-04-19 20:36:19 UTC 
Does this work better with fc5 final?
Comment 3 Gianluca Cecchi 2006-04-20 04:48:15 UTC 
It doesn't seem so.
In my fc5 final yum is yum-2.6.0-1.
I create a test dir where I put gdm-2.14.1-1.fc5.2.i386.rpm and
util-linux-2.13-0.20.1.i386.rpm, that right now need upgrade.
Then I put myself in test dir
My installed version are: gdm-2.14.0-1 and util-linux-2.13-0.20

The same with:  
yum localupdate *rpm --exclude=gdm\*
yum localupdate *rpm --exclude=gdm*
yum localupdate *rpm --exclude=gdm-2.14.1-1.fc5.2.i386.rpm

So now it seems that
"Excluding Packages in global exclude list" sentence
is neither considered.....
Note also that if I do

Comment 4 Jeremy Katz 2006-04-20 19:20:37 UTC 
Fixed in upstream CVS for yum-2.6.1 (... assuming Seth doesn't kill me ;-)
