[SOLVED] make urpmi ignore updates to specific rpms?

I installed mpd from mga3.tainted, and now urpmi --auto-update prompts me to install mpd from mga3 (without tainted). I do not want to replace my -tainted multimedia player with the plain version. Is there any recourse besides compiling my own mpd? I was hoping that since mageia has tainted repos, I could use them.

hello, yes you can add it here: /etc/urpmi/skip.list (seems the tainted version is lower than the normal one, usually this should not happen :/ )

I put 'mpd' in /etc/urpmi/skip.list, and everything is hunky dory. Thanks!
