D'OH...1D10T. Sooo, if I want to protect my Base repository from updates from Dag, and I want to protect the Dag repository from updates from KBS, for example, I'm just have to run yum with enable/disable repos accordingly?
I haven't reviewed the docs recently, but IIRC all repos with protect=1 are protected from all with protect=0. They are not protected from each other and ones with protect=0 are not protected from anybody. So my take is the "base protected" is intended to protect base pkgs from corruption/destruction by "add ons". All other protection comes from "enablerepo=" on the command line combined with "disable=" in the repo definitions... and the loose nut behind the wheel, of course.
Don't trust *my* memory though (bothers me not one whit if you are screwed! ;-): review the docs and get it right~
