If you want less aggressive tracking, don't use 3rd party and/or use
distro that matches this policy (eg. use CentOS instead).
I feel a communications breakdown here.
I was speaking about less aggressive version tracking in 3rd party repos
with Fedora.
And "don't use 3rd party" is so bogus I'm not even going to debunk it.
