[SOLVED]Cannot reinstall 2.0.12 after 2.2.0RC1
lazarus / 1-Linux

I use Mageia KDE - I have had to revert to using M7 because in M8 I
cannot, apparently, completely remove 2.2.0RC1. When I try to install
fpc-src-3.2.0 with "urpmi  fpc-src-3.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm" I get the
message:

"A requested package cannot be installed:
fpc-src-3.2.0-200706.x86_64 (in order to keep fpc-src-3.2.2-1.x86_64)
Continue installation anyway? (Y/n)". ['Y'] only repeats the question.

It seems 3.2.2 hasn't been completely removed and I can't find it, and
therefore where, to remove it! And where has "...0-2.0-200706.x ..."
come from?

 Can anyone help me to resolve this problem?

17 November 2021 : NO-ONE HAS RESPONDED!! How do I get back to
installing Laz2.0.12 in Mageia8 - having to keep returning to M7 is a
pest. 

19 November - tried tinkering in M8 before going to Lazarus in M7.
Somehow I eventually managed to install L2.0.12 OK - back to normal!
So all is "peace and wonder ...... !".
