Hi,

How do I exclude certain packages when I do pacman -Syu?

Thanks!

I did.  I'm trying to exclude ati-drivers;  I tried these two lines but they don't work:

NoUpgrade = ati-drivers
NoUpgrade = local/ati-drivers

I also added ati-drivers to HoldPkg and no luck.

Thanks!

I think it's IgnorePkg = ati-drivers.  Guess I should've RTFM first.
