Hi,
I have a server group where I can't upgrade/modify some RPM packages.
To prevent this Yum was configured with "exclude" option:
exclude=analog cpio coreutils dpkg openvpn rsync tar kernel
Now in Spacewalk we're using pkgSkipList:
# grep -i skip /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date
pkgSkipList=analog;cpio;coreutils;dpkg;openvpn;rsync;tar;kernel*;
It works OK, packages can't be upgraded; but they still appear as
upgrade-ables in Spacewalk, screenshot available at:

Is there anyway to prevent appearing those packages in Spacewalk? It
will be very useful because of I use a lot of "Systems -> Out of date"
to find servers that need upgrades, and those server group always
appears.. but they don't need upgrades :-/
How do you chance with this? thanks!
Regards,
