I have a Fedora system with Postgres version 8.3 and I want to downgrade to 8.2 because of a compatibility issue. I've been using yum for everything, but it's my first time with this package manager, and I don't know how to downgrade things. So how do I tell it to give me a specific version of a package?

As an example, I am looking for a mod_files.sh file which presumably would come with the php-devel package. I guessed that yum would install the mod_files.sh file with the php-devel x86_64 5.1.6-23.2.el5_3 package , but the file appears to not to be installed on my filesystem. How do I find out which package installs the specific file ...
My fantasy is to be able to spin up a standard AMI, load a tiny script and end up with a properly configured server instance. Part of this is that I would like to have a PRIVATE yum repo in S3 that would contain some proprietary code. It seems that S3 wants you to either be public or use AMZN's own special flavor of authentication. Is...

I need to upgrade an RPM installed via YUM, which has an fatal bug in its postun section. This will get run (and delete the program's user, which is what I want to not happen) when I run "yum upgrade". I know that if I were using rpm directly, I could just use the "-nopostun" option to skip this section, but I don't see a way of access...
