| httpd.x86_64 2.4.6-6.fc20 fedora | |
| httpd.x86_64 2.4.10-1.fc20 updates | |
| As far as installing a particular version? You can append the version info to the name of the package like so: | |
| $ sudo yum install <package name>-<version info> | |
| For example in this case if I wanted to install the older version, 2.4.6-6 I'd do the following: | |
| $ sudo yum install httpd-2.4.6-6 | |
| You can also include the release info when specifying a package. In this case since I'm dealing with Fedora 20 (F20) the release info would be "fc20", and the architecture info too. | |
| $ sudo yum install httpd-2.4.6-6.fc20 | |
| $ sudo yum install httpd-2.4.6-6.fc20.x86_64 |
