[SOLVED] can pacman hold an old version of a package?

Title pretty much says all.  I have a few things to do before I upgrade to Firefox 3, but I'd like for the rest of my system to be up-to-date.

Add this to /etc/pacman.conf

IgnorePkg = firefox

Your current version will be retained

Thanks, that's exactly what I needed.  Of note is that it needs to be under [options].
