I don't know how powerpill works.

I see there are at least aur/bauerbill, aur/pacman2aria2 and
aur/powerpill that fit the search term powerpill, but nothing
related by official repositories.

There's an Arch Wiki available, that explains how to downgrade packages:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/downgrading_packages

There are also tools available by the AUR:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/downgrading_packages#Automation

For example:

  [rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ downgrade xkeyboard-config
  Available packages:

  -  1)  xkeyboard-config    2.26  1  any  (remote)
  -  2)  xkeyboard-config    2.26  2  any  (remote)
  -  3)  xkeyboard-config    2.27  1  any  (remote)
  -  4)  xkeyboard-config    2.28  1  any  (remote)
  -  5)  xkeyboard-config    2.29  1  any  (remote)
  +  6)  xkeyboard-config    2.30  1  any  (remote)
  +  7)  xkeyboard-config    2.30  1  any  (local)

  select a package by number:

Note, those helpers from AUR aren't official supported. Arch General
is not the appropriate mailing list regarding unsupported helpers.
