Saw your other update that should provide a better method. But the method I had in mind was that you would never do a "yum update" with rpmforge enabled. You would have been stuck with a manual "yum update package" for each RPM you had installed from rpmforge. So clearly not an ideal method and a manual process. The ProtectBase approach is clearly better.

The worst that can be said is that he's an underachiever.
