What about some kind of preconfigured protection of base repositories?
Epel doesn't live up to their own standards of not replacing system
packages:
# yum -d3 update | grep epel
--> advancecomp-1.19-1.el7.x86_64 from epel excluded (priority)
--> itstool-2.0.2-1.el7.noarch from epel excluded (priority)
--> libntlm-1.3-0.6.el7.x86_64 from epel excluded (priority)
--> libntlm-devel-1.3-0.6.el7.x86_64 from epel excluded (priority)
--> libvncserver-0.9.9-0.9.el7.x86_64 from epel excluded (priority)
--> libvncserver-devel-0.9.9-0.9.el7.x86_64 from epel excluded (priority)
--> perl-Crypt-PasswdMD5-1.3-0.16.el7.noarch from epel excluded (priority)
--> perl-LWP-Protocol-https-6.04-3.el7.noarch from epel excluded
(priority)
--> perl-Mozilla-CA-20130114-4.el7.noarch from epel excluded (priority)
--> python-mako-0.7.3-1.el7.noarch from epel excluded (priority)
--> python-webob-1.2.3-8.el7.noarch from epel excluded (priority)
# yum list python-webob
Installed Packages
python-webob.noarch
1.2.3-6.el7 @base
And for epel 5 and epel 6 this list is much longer.
