Does that allow for "wildcarding". IOW, can I do an includepkgs for zaptel-kmdl-*_FC5xen0-*.fc5.at ? If not, that's not going to work for the kmdl packages because that versioning is included in the package names (which doesn't work for updates anyways, which we've already established).
I know the "excludepkgs" option supports some glob-style wildcards so I'd guess that "includepkgs" did too. Not sure how good the wildcard support is though, e.g. if it handles "*" in the middle of a name. Try it and see :-)
Actually, looks like zaptel-* is sufficient and I don't need it in the middle of a name (which should work, IAC, now that I've read the documentation - RTFM...) so I'm covered.
Seems to work just fine. Your's wins the prize at the best advice. That seems to have solved a lot of problems as long as I don't run a foul of a dependency like asterisk and spandsp that I did a couple of days ago (broke Asterisk when Spandsp wasn't updated but that wasn't this problem). But it looks like it's got all my bases covered now.
Many thanks!
Paul.
