Here's a random example:
sudo yum install smb4k
Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Loading "changelog" plugin
Loading "kernel-module" plugin
Loading "merge-conf" plugin
Loading "priorities" plugin
Loading "allowdowngrade" plugin
Setting up Install Process
Parsing package install arguments
0 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
