Thanks.  I didn't notice that yum had a downgrade command.  That makes
it easier to dig up the previous version.  Neat!

I just added this to /etc/yum.conf, so I could update other unrelated
things:

exclude=*NetworkManager*0.8.0-6.git20100408.fc12

(I wasn't sure where the "1:" from the full rpm name of
"1:NetworkManager-0.7.996-6.git20091021.fc12.x86_64" was supposed to
show up.  Some commands have it show up with the version number, others
prepened to the package name.  I just slapped in an extra * to cover all
bases.)
