    I downloaded the sources for alsa-lib, alsa-utils, alsa-driver, and
    asla-tools. There is no rpm involved here. In retrospect, it might
    have been best if I could have done a rpm erase on the existing alsa
    packages, but I didn't. I went to each of the dirs that were created
    from unzipping the source packages, then the old configure;make;make
    install.
