How should I proceed to downgrade all the rpms to f11 release? It's possible with a lot of work. Obsoletes don't work in reverse so that something like yum downgrade isn't going to work very well. Probably the majority of the downgrade will be blocked. Sometimes things like the rpm database format changes and it is going to take a lot of futzing around to work around that. In general if you want to try rawhide and still have the old version available, you want to make a fresh install to an available partition or use a Live CD/DVD. Probably the easiest way to do this to save your data and do a fresh install. Since things seem to be working for you, I'd suggest holding off until you find an actual problem before trying to revert. It's late enough in the F12 cycle that there probably won't be a lot of new breakage and if things are working for you now, they will probably continue to do so through the release. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
