[arch-general] Modify installed package version

Hey guys

is there a way to modify an installed package's version using pacman,
instead of upgrading the package. That is, only change the version in the
database, but don't actually upgrade a package.

Alternatively can I rename the package directory inside
/var/lib/pacman/local/ and %VERSION% string inside the desc file to
achieve the same?
