[users@httpd] yum update puts back removed Apache modules
It seems as though “yum” update has replaced Apache modules installed in the default installation, that we had removed after the initial install because they weren’t used.
Is there some way to prevent that from happening?
thanks

I have had to deal with this problem, usually due to updates that are
unsupported by 3rd party apps. You can exclude individual packages
from your updates. I think this article should help.

yum doesn't know when you install a programme by compiling it that it is

previous record (the apache version that you superseded).
There is a yum option to exclude specific packages from a yum update. I
seem to recall that it is --exclude <package> but you can find it in the man
file.
The newer version of yum, dnf, is a bit more flexible if you have the option
to update, and the command for dnf is -x <package name>
