Downgrade CentOS 6.6 mesa-libGL

fzanella · 11-24-2014, 04:41 PM

I recently upgraded a CentOS 6.5 server to 6.6, and am now regretting it. I can no longer use tools which require a GUI, I get the ChoosePixelFormat failure.
The mesa-libGL version is 10.1.2-2.el6
Whereas on a CentOS 6.5 system, mesa-libGL is 9.2-0.6.el6_5.2

Is there any way to downgrade mesa-libGL packages to a prior version?

thanks

Although I do not recommend the following course of action, you could always download the older packages from the CentOS 6.5 repo, downgrade using something like

Code:

rpm -Uvh --oldpackage <list of all old rpm packages goes here>

where you list all of the old packages to install, and hope that it works.
