Excluder ======== Many times admins do not want certain packages updated when doing normal system updates. The excluder scripts exclude packages from yum or dnf so that the packages are not updated. The excluder scripts add and remove packages to the exclude line of the yum or dnf config file. excluder-template ----------------- Create new excluder scripts by using the template.
