now that you mention this, where are you downloading 'downgrade' from? AFAIK the only one available is the AUR one and its 'remote' options are all from the upstream Arch server. Am I wrong? do you use downgrade with the Arch32 server? and if so, how?

Have a look at the archive https://archive.archlinux32.org/.
