Safe to downgrade to: a release before 4.7

1. Check installed version

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

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before 4.7 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison ida sudo apt install ida=<VERSION_BEFORE_4.7> sudo apt-mark hold ida

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list ida sudo dnf downgrade ida-<VERSION_BEFORE_4.7> sudo dnf versionlock add ida

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.
