Create a "Recommended Updates" Blacklist?

[BuntuSeriously]

Greetings!

Was interested to know if there is/can be a blacklist for programs which should not be updated during a "Recommended updates" operation.

Running 12.04.

The recommended way is called apt-pinning, and it's explained in great detail at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto
