From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020827 Description of problem: Due to bugs #76626 and #76627 (gated obsoletes zebra and zebra obsoletes gated) I added "zebra*" to the package exceptions list, but this had no effect and zebra was replaced by gated. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install zebra 2. add "zebra*" to the package exceptions list 3. run "up2date -u" Actual Results: zebra is replaced by gated. Expected Results: zebra shouldn't be replaced. Additional info: Adding also "gated*" to the package exception list prevents zebra from being replaced, but this is only a workaround. There is no way to know what package will obsolete in the future an other package and put that also in the exceptions list.
I see i forgot the up2date versions: up2date-2.8.39-1.7.2 and up2date-2.8.39-1.7.3
This should be fixed in later versions by two things: support for "blacklisting" bad obsoletes like the zebra<->gated circle close attention to the skip list in these cases
