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?"
