[Spacewalk-list] Pinning package version?

[Paul Robert Marino]

Actually you can do it easily from the client side
Look at yum-versionlock it's a plug in for yum
And you can deploy it's configuration through Spacewalk configuration management or via a remote command

Fouts, Christopher:
> Can Spacewalk pin a package version, e.g., if I want a certain version of openssl on all my servers for example? I know I can do this with yum options and plugins, and in the yum.comf file, but I’m specifically wondering about Spacewalk.

Hi Chris,

There's actually no straightforward way. You have to remove all other
versions of package from channel and/or setup repository filter not to
sync them again.
