~]$ yum downgrade samba

..and process fails.
chained are i686 arch?(libwbclient?) and such a looong list of deps.
Samba downgrade used to work I remember. And it saved a day or two in the past after an upgrade of buggy samba version.

yum downgrade samba
Comment 4 lejeczek 2017-01-26 11:36:30 UTC 
there is more, so it might be a lot further down the chain and more serious(or trivial), here:

]$ yum downgrade bind

I'm not sure where this bug report should go?
thanks
Comment 5 lejeczek 2017-01-26 11:46:55 UTC 
ok, because system I run off is Centos, mailing list signals this might the cause, the problem.
If yes, that would be a big! bummer.
Comment 6 Andreas Schneider 2017-01-26 15:43:32 UTC 
I see centos and rhel7 packages. Yum also reports issues with your rpmdb. It looks like yum chooses i686 packages for some reason maybe because your package cache is crippled you should fix rpmdb and the metadata cache. If you're running centos and have a mix of packages, I do not see how this can be our fault.
Comment 7 lejeczek 2017-01-26 16:57:24 UTC 
But I don't, not a single rpm is 686, and only Centos' repos

repo id                             repo name                             status
base/7/x86_64                       CentOS-7 - Base                       9,363
extras/7/x86_64                     CentOS-7 - Extras                       242
updates/7/x86_64                    CentOS-7 - Updates                      786
repolist: 10,391

there is nothing wrong with rpmdb, problem is IPA - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1370134
Comment 8 Andreas Schneider 2017-04-05 09:06:08 UTC 
So, assuming this is fixed with bug #1370134.
