[CentOS] Downgrade libgcc & gcc packages (is there a clean way)

[Dan Burkland]

Machine is running 5.3 and somehow both packages got updated to libgcc-4.1.2-48.el5 when they need to be libgcc-4.1.2-44.el5. The DBAs here perform the Oracle Grid Control client install however they said it will not install it if detects an incorrect package version.

Thanks again,

Dan

Normally I'd just remove and reinstall the packages however removing libgcc is no fun as I found out the hard way it breaks pretty much every package including rpm & yum. Is there an elegant way to downgrade the currently installed libgcc & gcc packages?

Which specific version? Can't you You get away with the compat
packages? The rest should be compatible.
