The other option, which I'm kinda loathe to implement is to change the
mechanism for adding updates into yum's transaction set holder.

so that you could do:
addUpdate(foopackage) # which would update over all older foopackages
addUpdate(foopackage, this_old_package) # which would mark only
this_old_package for erase and install foopackage)

that might be an option but to 'fix' it globally it should be done in
rpm.
