Hi niece Akemi,

Centosplus's priority was 1. I had totally forgotten a special kernel
was in that repo and no, I don't have the kernel excluded in
base/updates. I have since increased the priority of all Centos repos
other than base to a number greater than 1. I hope there are no other
problems!

Thanks. Always a pleasure to talk to you! Now to remove the centos.plus
kernel.
