0 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
As someone else pointed out, you really need to get Priority working, before you trash that box. When I installed EPEL, a month or so ago, I gave it a very low priority, the lowest priority of any of the Repositories I use. The number of packages being excluded, on my CentOS 5.2 (32 bit) Desktop increased from approximately 350 to 1560, when EPEL was added.
Somewhat OT, but I find that a combination of priorities and excludes is required to get what I want. I also use a low priority for EPEL but, for instance, want their later rkhunter version so it is necessary to exclude that in rpmforge.repo to have it install/update.
