Dear friends,
I installed yum-allowdowngrades, I am using the --allow-downgrade option and I am specifying the full name of the package. Yet, yum refuses to replace any fc8 package by its fc7 equivalent. If I say install, yum says nothing to do. If I say update/upgrade, yum says no update information. What can I do? Thanks!
I was considering remove/install, but some of the packages are required by maybe about half of the others (such as zlib).
On the other hand, if I wait, will all those fc8 packages be updated by fc7 packages?
Oh, I just see I still have xsri for fc6. Is that something to be concerned about?
Take care Oliver

Thnx. Unfortunately, I updated this morning, and there were 117 (or something like that) packages updated; but already with all kind of fc8-suffixes. When I installed this rpm, is it possible in some more or less easy way to revert those updates? Now I have a 'mixed' system, which I would like to fix to a fedora7-system.
Thanks in advance for your reply.
Do a clean installation. Reverting will be a pain that's not worth the time.
I don't think it is that hard. Just install the fedora-release, then do a "rpm -qa | grep -i fc8" and replace all those packages listed with fc7 ones from the repository.
