If you maintain your own private yum repositories, you can certainly downgrade to versions you provide yourself. But being able to downgrade to any arbitrary package using the CentOS repos would use up considerable storage resources. The repo maintainers aren't psychic, so they'd have to keep EVERY SINGLE RPM. Every mirror would have to keep every RPM too. This is why I have a testing infrastructure to test updates. -- Jonathan Billings <billings at negate.org>
