Hmm - problem.  "Command line error: no such option: --allow-downgrade"

I now have a kde install.  There are still a few fc10 packages around:

google-gadgets-0.10.5-7
libdcp4client-4.0.0-35
neon-0.28.4-1.1
iptables-ipv6-1.4.3.2-1
ca-certificates-2009-1
kbackup-0.5.4-1
GeoIP-1.4.6-2
libtalloc-1.2.0-31
compat-db45-4.5.20
sudo-1.7.1-2
kompose-0.5.3-13
iptables-1.4.3.2-1
google-gadgets-qt-0.10.5-7
libtar-1.2.11-11
kipi-plugins-0.3.0-1

I presume these are the ones that will be taken care of by the --allow-
download?  (The yum help file doesn't show --allow-downgrade.)
