[Yum] F7 yum 3.2.7 ignoring installonlypkgs?

[Richard Michael]

Hi list,

I've probably missed something obvious, but my Fedora 7 yum seems to be
ignore my settings for installonlypkgs and installonly_limit.

Yum appears to insist on updating my kernel packages, and I haven't
exceeded installonly_limit.

(I used livna repos for nvidia kernel modules.  I disabled the livna
repo for the tests below, but I have the same problem when livna repos
remain enabled..)

What have I missed?  Is there another setting (other than /etc/yum.conf)
on a Fedora system which is controlling this behaviour?

Thanks,
Richard
