I've been trying out the protectbase plugin for yum, and haven't yet determined the best way to selectively update a package. E.g. I'd like to mark the base repo as protected, but get the latest firefox from the centosplus repo.
What's the correct incantation for this?
Goto your /etc/yum.repos.d and edit CentOS-Base.repo and do the following;
under [base] add exclude=firefox
Under [centosplus] add includepkgs=firefox
