yes, currently I can use standard client-local exclusion procedure using
/etc/yum.conf with "exclude" directive - packages will not be installed,
but:
- Spacewalk is not avare about it and it will always show that there are
updated packages available
- this directive cannot be applied per repository, but instead it have
global impact for system - i.e. if I once exclude packageXYZ from
installation, it will be excluded from all repositories and all versions.
..and of course this is not very sufficient
thanks for any ideas

Hello list,
sorry for raising this very old thread. but it looks actual for me as
I cannot find similar feature in last spacewalk. please can someone
confirm if this feature is implemented or not?
very simple example: I've subscribed for several clients a new
respository (centos alt), but I dont want to use certain packages from
this repo (as postfix, mysql libs and so on). It's possible to exclude
it somehow from list of available packages? excluding may have global
impact (for all subscribed clients) or local (based on selected
hosts). any of both options will be fine.
thanks for response in advance

Hello List,
I have a Spacewalk 1.4 installation that I am trying to exclude a
certain package from installing on certain servers. I have added the
exclude = packagename* to the /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf
file and perform yum commands and this works fine. When I perform a
package install via Spacewalk and select the package that should be
excluded and try to install that package it actually installs the
package. Is there anything that I could do to stop the package from
installing from the web ui?
Thank you for your time and have a great day!
Kind regards,
JD
