Hmm, what would happen if I left out the exclude for base but used the include for plus?
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.
