+Radu-Cristian FOTESCU &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">beranger5ca at yahoo.ca</A>&gt; a &#233;crit:
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; I a not sure that most people realize they can revert. Maybe a easier
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; interface to do that could be offered ( along maybe with a tool that
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; send feedback on why it did downgrade it ? ).
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; that's not a bad idea, what is the best way to revert? is that with --old-
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; package ?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Maybe I'm stupid, but rpmdrake does not have any option to downgrade a package. To my knowledge, the only GUI in this world that has such an option (in a menu) is Synaptic, but Synaptic itself ceases to be the default GUI package manager in *buntu 11.11.
+</I>
+No I don't think, smart and smart-gui can do that.
+Furthermore, if you break drakrpm and/or urpmi (using unofficlal
+sources or testing) it can run because based on python.
+For me it is a good complement to urpmi (whith urpmisync like in
+Mandriva)... when it works (I had o lot of problems in Mandriva
+2010.1 2010.2 with urpmi synchronisation)
+
+&gt;<i> And man urpmi does not assist the user into downgrading a package. Frankly, I don't know how to protect a package from being updated, the way I can do it with yum (or the way I can hold a package with dpkg, aptitude or dselect). Of course, I am not that familiar with Mageia (or Mandriva), or rather I treated Mageia (and Mandriva) as &quot;distros where I should use the GUI tools or the default options of the CLI tools and not bother much&quot; -- otherwise, why using mga/mdv and not something else?
