Affected: 2.2

Fixed in: no fixed release known

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 2.2

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy calendar-express || rpm -q calendar-express || calendar-express --version

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before 2.2 (Debian / Ubuntu)

Downgrade risk

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