restore .. after up2date ?


If I make up2date on the Red Hat 7.3, if they are a way to restore the previous packages.

In other words, restore previous packages.

Thanks

Yes. You'll need the old package and you'll have to tell the RPM command that you are replacing the new one. Try:

rpm -Uvh --oldfile ?????.rpm

In a terminal window, type: man rpm

This will bring up the rpm manual page which will explain all of this. To exit that, just press Q.
