The package "gnome-shell-extension-weather" is currently in the f-16, f-17 and f-18 branches.
From a recent update onwards, it seems that the extension has lost compatibility with Fedora 16 (please see this bug report: https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2564 ).

Is it possible to revert the package to an old build (the last compatible with F16) in the f-16 branch and then make such branch (and only that) stick to that version in the future?

If so, how to do that?

You need to provide an update in F-16 that will upgrade the previous package from RPM perspective, but downgrade to the appropriate software version at the same time.
Next, you need to take into account that a package in F-17, always need to be higher than one in F-16.

You can use rpmdev-vercmp to verify that behaviour.

Thx.
