Yeah - I see no allowdowngrade plugin for 2.4.
That would do it though.

Yes - it can install older versions when specifying the version in
the command, but no - not when just using the wildcard *. However, I
can script that in my cfengine file to present the version to the yum
install command line. No biggie there.
In either case, I DO have to use the allowdowngrade plugin, otherwise
I get a transaction error.
My next roadblock:
Is there a allowdowngrade or yum-utils RPM out for RHEL4 - yum 2.4,
and it's older libs?
Maybe I could build a yum-3.0 for RHEL4 and then load yum-utils?
I've been testing on a Fedora Core 6 box, but this all has to work on
a RHEL4 one.
CentOS has a yum-utils available for yum 2.4 - I'm not sure if
allowdowngrade is in it or not. There has been some backporting of
certain
utils from newer releases to the yum-utils available for CentOS 4,
so it
might be feasible.
