[pungi PATCH] Exclude obsoleted packages

[Panu Matilainen]

Inspired by recent fedora-devel list discussion, here's a patch to save 
some space from images by excluding obsoleted packages. Arguably those 
packages should just die and not hang around in the repos, but these 
undead packages seem fairly persistent...

This is what I see with F18 install DVD:

Before patch:
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 4687134720 Nov 12 21:10 Fedora-18-x86_64-DVD.iso

With the patch:
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 4550819840 Nov 12 21:01 Fedora-18-x86_64-DVD.iso

This is what makes up the difference:
