On a machine without yum, I have version 3.2 of a package installed and I have downloaded version 2.4 manually, how do I install the older version?
Best Answer
rpm -Uvh --oldpackage [filename]
--oldpackage
allows you to install older versions,-U
means "upgrade", but in this case it will just replace the other version. If you use-i
instead of-U
you will end up with both versions installed.
