I still have this problem when trying to remove (buggy) PPA packages to
replace them from mainstream Karmic repos. Synaptic does not handle the
situation gracefully, or at all. It disobeys without explanation.
Command-line aptitude, however, does work a bit better. Those looking
for a workaround s
It's been a while so I don't remember the conversation but I think you turn
off the proposed repos in synaptic and then do the updates. Synaptic will
recognize it is dealing with different versions that what is in the stable
branch and downgrade things back to those version numbers.
I would ask
So how exactly does one _mass_ downgrade packages from "newer than those
found in archive" to the versions _found_ in archive?
Can someone provide me with the CLI command please? *pleading eyes*

Downgrading package results in marking it's dependencies for removal
even if downgrade is not going to make conflict.
Even if it is dangerous to downgrade package it would be nice to have
options to keep dependencies in place or downgrade dependencies to
resolve conflict, or reinstall dependencies

The big scenario for me on this is when I finally learned/figured-out that the
"Proposed" repository is more or less for alpha/beta versions of stuff. Right??

So then if I were to install a package and find that the package has a
bug for which no patch exists at the time, and I decide I want to go
back to what I had earlier that worked, how am I supposed to do this?

it's not really a bug, since downgrading isn't supported at all by the
packages - as michael said before. The only reason for this function in
synaptic is to fix your system in some rare cases.
Generally manually updating libc is a bad idea. Just recompile the
package for your distriubtion.

This is quite an issue for me. I wanted to try the new libtheora and had
to manually upgrade the versions of libc6 etc.
smb no longer worked with the new versions of libc6 so I wanted to
return my system to what it used to be. I tried clicking on the package
and "Force Version"ing but that (as was
