yum-priorities is a plugin for yum that allows varying priorities to be set for the various repositories you may be using with your system. This helps prevent packages from 3rd-party repositories from overwriting official packages for your distribution.

You have to install it:

yum install yum-priorities


Then make sure yum plugins are enabled by putting a line that says 'plugins=1' in /etc/yum.conf.

Then, in each .repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d, in each [] section, you can put a 'priority=' line.

Priorities can range from 1 to 99, with lower priority numbers getting precedence over higher priority numbers.

I'm glad it's working for you.
I don't see any reference to a priority parameter in the yum page. I seem to remember the man page(s) being a bit obsolete before. Can you point me to some documentation on this?
Thanks.

Setting priority=1 in the qmailtoaster.repo file fixed it
