I recently had a nice hard two-day battle getting mplayer functioning correctly by mixing and matching repos. Yum desperatly wants to update my freshrpms mplayer installation with new packages from livna, that had failed me in the past. So I'm updating the system with "--exclude=mplayer*" to preserve my installation.
Is there a way that I can _try_ the new livna packages and rollback if they don't work? I don't want to go through the repo soup again, yet the freshrpms mplayer does not seem to be capable of fullscreen playback (I may need to install a quartz video output driver). How does one configure 'rollback' points?
Thanks in advance.
