No, wouldn't work in that case. The problem with Evolution was that the new Kerberos needed Evolution to be rebuilt; it was installing the new Kerberos that would force Evolution to be removed, Evolution itself wasn't the problem (indeed wasn't being updated in that --auto-select). Sure, I could do urpmi --auto-select --skip kerberos (or libkrb or whatever it is), but working out that kerberos was the problem wasn't necessarily trivial, and urpmi can certainly work it out faster than I can :) -- adamw
