uninet statsplus DOWNGRADE

Affected: 1.25

Fixed in: no fixed release known

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 1.25

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy statsplus || rpm -q statsplus || statsplus --version

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before 1.25 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison statsplus sudo apt install statsplus=<VERSION_BEFORE_1.25> sudo apt-mark hold statsplus

dnf --showduplicates list statsplus sudo dnf downgrade statsplus-<VERSION_BEFORE_1.25> sudo dnf versionlock add statsplus

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
