Download the 2.6.8 tar file and then build and install that. You could
do that using rpmbuild, as long as your rpm build environment is setup.
For instance, mine defines ~/rpm as the %_topdir in my ~/.rpmmacros
file, so I could do this:
rpmbuild -tb --clean rsync-2.6.8-tar.gz
rpm -ivh ~/rpm/RPMS/i686/rsync-2.6.8-1.i686.rpm
Or, you could extract the tar file, configure, make, and install it
manually:
tar xvzf rsync-2.6.8-tar.gz
cd rsync-2.6.8
./configure
make
make install
