retrieving a previous version

[Terry Chan]

RTFM.  man lrm

lrm -D php 4.3.4

or since you have module_history/php-4.3.4-20040326.tar.bz2, you can
untarball that module into the proper spot in /var/lib/lunar/moonbase
and then just "lin php" will do the same thing.  lunar hold php will also
be necessary to prevent your php from being automatically bumped.
