Did you reconfigure your yum repos?  The default k12ltsp repos should 
still be working and up to date.   Or are you getting a conflict that 
you never fixed?  I sort-of remember having to make a few package 
changes over time but I thought is was mostly from new things in EPEL 
which I normally keep enabled.

Normally Centos will just update minor rev numbers automatically.  If 
you need anything really old, you can find it http://vault.centos.org.
