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.
