OK, can you post *exactly* what you're trying, so that I can duplicate 
things?

What I did, was downgrade kgamma-5.4.3 (from kde-testing) to kgamma-5.4.2 
(updates) with:

dnf downgrade kgamma

Then, I edited /etc/yum.repos.d/kde.repo

[kde-testing]
...
exclude=kgamma

and after refreshing, neither pk-plasma-updates or apper reports that as an 
update anymore.

When I remove the
exclude=kgamma

apper reports it as available again.
