it isn't too easy, but it's even not very complicated. AFAIK there is a
switch in dpkg which can be used together with dpkg and deselect to allow
downgrades. I could just write it down here, but I don't, because _you_ could
just try it without reading the manual and finally you _have_ to reinstall 
and I got the blame ...

Sorry for this, but please run
	man dpkg
and read it.
