Yep, it works perfectly. I used it recently when kdelib was breaking
k3b, and I rolled it back to older version of kdelibs with no problem.
It's much more easier to write 'up2date --undo' nor " rpm -Uvh
--rollback '1 hour ago' ", or something. Ok, I had problems with it on
Rawhide when you updated Xorg to 7.0 when I couldn't startx and that was
the only thing when rollback didn't make it. X are very complex packages
thoe and I suppose that rollback feature wasn't designed for such things
as rolling back to previous version of X or kernel. Anyway, rpm itself
does not provide such informations as it follows:

[root@munja ~]# up2date --list-rollbacks
install time: Tue Jan 17 03:35:30 2006   tid:1137465330

I usually don't keep those packages in /var/spool/repackage if I
experience no problem in a day or two. Anyway, that rollback feature is
a very nice thing.
