I think the use of multiple excludepkgs is intuitive. Each time you want to pin a package, you add an excludepkgs.
I don't. It flies in the face of many other configuration files that I've adjusted. If I do something like the following in one file:
I hope multiple configuration files in config.d/ directories don't offend your delicate sensibilities.
That isn't the same thing. Config.d directories are designated as places where multiple configuration files are placed. Tim is talking about historical convention for a single configuration file.
And the way you phrased your response comes across as sarcastic and demeaning, almost as a personal attack. Maybe you didn't mean it that way, but that's how I would interpret it. You could have said something like, "What about multiple configuration files in config.d directories? Doesn't that contradict what you are saying?"
No, I did.
I don't feel like engaging in another endless debate the same folks seem to engage in on this list.
The thrust of my post was the documentation bug, not his personal opinion of me being incorrect.
