I still don't understand why this is not the default. Even for stable
releases, because without it, you can easily obtain only the ancient GA
version of the package, which is usually not what you want to downgrade to.
That said, will "dnf downgrade" offer you cached versions that are no longer
in the repos? Last I checked, it only offered me whatever was still in the
repos, and I had to dig up the cached RPMs manually.
Check out the fedora-repos-archive package. You'll love it! (I certainly do!)
