I was more curious about the downgrade issue.....having never tried it
before. Seems as if "downgrade" doesn't really mean what it says in
"man yum" since the repos only contain the latest update to a package
in the "updates" repo and the initial release package in the
"release"
repo.
As I understand it, downgrade still requires the original rpm. So it
first looks in the local yum cache, if not available looks for it on the
repo.
That said, maybe the Fedora repos can keep more than one (say 2-3)
versions of the kernel in case some users need to downgrade and don't
have it in their cache?
