Ignore Packages in Yum?


Heya,

I am trying to do an install of a certain application that has provided me a custom rpm that keeps getting blown away at yum updates.

How can I tell yum to update the rest of my system, but ignore said rpm -- forever, as in when i schedule yum updates, it won't update it?

I know for a manual run i can do something like yum --igore=said_pacage update , but I run yum as a daemon to update all the time.
