package 113-8.fc7 is not installed
and here.
The output format from the yum logs are different from the package
name that you need to pass to RPM. The version string should be
separated from the package name by a dash, and the i386 shouldn't be
needed (unless you're running multilib). Your command should be more
like:
rpm -e udev-113-8.fc7
That should match the output you would find if you were to query RPM
just by package name and not by package name + version string. On my
machine:
[justin@ra ~]$ rpm -q udev
udev-095-17.fc6

I'm sorry Justin you simply do not understand. I have to replace
the existing updated rpm with an older one. hard to do!
No, I understood that you wanted to downgrade, but you were inputting
the names into rpm incorrectly. I've never had much luck with
downgrading, so I'm not going to give broken advice (there's seems to be
enough on the list already at times). I was just hoping to enlighten.
