yum exclude not working?

[Sean Earp <smearp mac com>]

Hello all,

Is it just me, or is the   --exclude      switch not working in the 
current version of yum (yum-2.0.5.20040310-1)?

As usual, when downloading the rawhide updates, it choked on a 
dependancy problem (this time with the kdeaddons package).   I attempted 
to exclude the offending package, but recieved the exact same error 
message.  Am I mistyping the command, or is there an actual problem that 
needs to be bugzilla'd?
