Yes, you can certainly do the same using the yumdb; the issue is
really if the newer software has done things like updating database
tables to a new schema or moving the location of config files. It
might be surprising to upgrade epiphany to 3.12, downgrade to 3.10 and
not have access to your web history or favourites any more.
