slapt-get / automatic exclude - is it possible?
Posted: 24. Sep 2010, 16:38
Is there a way to setup slapt-get so that it will automatically exclude a package from upgrading if a newer version is already installed in the system?
Yes, two ways actually.
1. Add the package in the EXCLUDE list, either from inside gslapt or straight in /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc
2. Create a local repository in your harddrive with the packages you want and assign that local repository a CUSTOM priority in slapt-getrc.
