Description Andreas Fleig 2010-05-16 14:59:51 UTC
Description of problem:
Instead of downgrading itself to resolve dependency problems during a "yum downgrade", yum removes itself.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-3.2.27-4.fc13.noarch

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:

1. Install updates from updates-testing
2. Downgrade db4-4.8.30-1.fc13.x86_64 to db4-4.8.26-1.fc13.x86_64
3. Profit

Actual results:
a fedora system without yum and rpm

Expected results:
a fedora system with downgraded yum and rpm

Additional info:
yum log and sqlite history attached

Yeh, a couple of people have logged this now. I'll change this one to an RFE, but it's a _big_ change. As always don't use "-y" unless you have really good backups :).
