Description Jens Petersen 2015-01-19 03:12:45 UTC

Description of problem:
This feels like a regression wrt yum but maybe I am overlooking something.

I installed a newer ghc-rpm-macros build locally and later when I tried to
downgrade to the F21 version, dnf refused to do while yum was able to. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
dnf-0.6.3-2.fc21

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. sudo dnf install ghc-rpm-macros\*
2. sudo dnf --enablerepo=rawhide update ghc-rpm-macros\*
3. sudo dnf downgrade ghc-rpm-macros\*

Actual results:
3. Error: package ghc-rpm-macros-extra-1.3.10-1.fc22.x86_64 requires ghc-rpm-macros = 1.3.10-1.fc22, but none of the providers can be installed

Expected results:
Downgrade with wildcard to work like yum does.

Additional info:
Workaround is to list also ghc-rpm-macros-extra explicitly but
this can quickly get tedious if there are many subpackages to downgrade.
