That's it. :-) No --force --nodeps needed.
With RPM itself, use --oldpackage rather than --force --nodeps.
what, exactly, do you think synaptic does when you do 'force version'?
It (well, libapt-pkg) does this when downgrades are needed:
probFilter |= RPMPROB_FILTER_OLDPACKAGE;
..
rc = rpmtsRun(TS, NULL, (rpmprobFilterFlags)probFilter);
