The only way to downgrade a package is
download the RPM (I'm using yumdownloader for that) and manually
downgrading it by using:

$ sudo rpm -Uvh --force [rpmfile]

No comment on your yum related issue. But here please use --oldpackage
instead of --force. As why, look up in "man rpm" that --force is the
same as using --replacepkgs, --replacefiles, and --oldpackage", and
you do not want the --replacefiles option, because it can also replace
files from _other_ packages and thereby break installations.
