remote reproducer using docker:
(commands that Dockerfile runs are displayed on that page, so not 
posting them here)

https://hub.docker.com/r/glen/rpm-repackage-bug/builds/b96cnokzxisbioj7egrc7d8/

seems to reproduce this and looks like my original problem too, as 
qboosh pointed out,
is that downgrade should match more than one pam package by same name.

i will add -vv to commands and ls -l and post the build result in next 
post to this list.
