In that scenario, how does one force a downgrade?

On first thought: Force an uninstall via yum (if yum won't do it, use rpm), install the older version via yum (if available from rpmforge) and then exclude it (and probably all related rpms) from yum updating.

There may be better ways.

Well, yes that could work. use "yum erase package name" to remove it. But, can one install a specific version of a package from the yum command?
