I tried this with the kernel* packages and it doesn't do what I hoped,
unless I also turn off protect on base, which sort of defeats the
purpose. Oh, well.
Related question: How does one get a list of the contents of a repo
so as to maintain a correct includepkgs line, while still having the
includepkgs line present? E.g. suppose some new package is added to
centosplus that I might want to use to update a base package. If I
have an includepkgs line for centosplus, "yum check-update" will never
show me that a new package is there, because it will ignore everything
except what's already in the includepkgs line.
