I'm trying to configure Renovate on a Symfony project that uses Flex to check conflicting versions. In my repo Renovate should do an update for symfony/monolog-bundle 3.8.0 -> 3.10.0 but it also updates e.g. symfony/error-handler from 5.4.29 -> 6.3.5. This update should be avoided by Flex
In a first step I set the allowPlugins option to true and ignorePlugins to false like suggested here https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate/pull/11990
That resulted in no update cause Renovate groups Symfony updates so that symfony/maker-bundle should also be updated which then resulted in a conflict. So I broke down the config:recommended preset to remove the Symfony grouping. I then get an faulty update for symfony/monolog-bundle but non for symfony/maker-bundle.
