The dnf distro-sync command is also helpful for things like
this.  It avoids the needs to work out versions and works
for more than just a single package at a time.

Simply disable the unwanted and/or unavailable repo dnf will
install the version from the remaining repos, whether that's
a downgrade or upgrade. E.g.:

    sudo dnf distro-sync --disable-repo=RMY-REPO gnome-shell

Where 'RMY-REPO' above is whatever the name of the
third-party repo you have providing those .rmy packages.
Though it sounds like disabling/removing that entirely
should be a first step rather than something done manually
just once.

Running distro-sync without any package spec would probably
be good to sync up any other packages which have been
overridden by the same third-party repo.  That gets messy,
so manually removing some things may end up being required,
depending on what has been installed.
