[RFE] yum --exclude includes installed rpms
Issue
yum --exclude includes installed rpms in the result set even if the --exclude option specifically asks to include that rpm.
For example: without --exclude
# yum provides "libreadline.so.5()(64bit)"
compat-readline5-5.2-17.1.el6.x86_64 : A library for editing typed command lines
Repo : production-rhel-x86_64-workstation-6.5
Matched from:
Other : libreadline.so.5()(64bit)
compat-readline5-5.2-17.1.el6.x86_64 : A library for editing typed command lines
Repo : installed
Matched from:
Other : Provides-match: libreadline.so.5()(64bit)
And using --exclude
# yum --exclude=compat-readline5 provides "libreadline.so.5()(64bit)"
compat-readline5-5.2-17.1.el6.x86_64 : A library for editing typed command lines
Repo : installed
Matched from:
Other : Provides-match: libreadline.so.5()(64bit)
Still the "installed" compat-readline5 package is showing though we excluded it .
