== Testing 7.3==
+
=== Usage ===
=== Original Configuration ===
+
#* if you install any contribs or non-sme packages using any form of ''--enablerepo=<xxx>'', update with ''yum --enablerepo=* update'' (or separate --enablerepo=<xxx> arguments for every repo you've ever included using ''--enablerepo='') to make sure you get any available updates for your extra packages
yum update
+
#* If you get a 'missing dependancy error' from yum,
 
+
#** re-run yum manually using "--exclude <pkgname>" on the command line, replacing <pkgname> with the package that is preventing your update
...
+
#** If you suspect that the blocked update resolves a security issue, you must decide for yourself whether to compromise the original sme/centos package and force the update of the non-sme/centos package by running ''yum --noplugins --enablerepo=* update <pkgname>

=== To Do ===
  −
Figure out why setting priorities results in missing dependcies.

I tried giving all 'sme' repos higher priority (priority=5) than the centos repos (priority=10) - same result.
