1. Check installed version

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

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before 0.8 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison netpanzer sudo apt install netpanzer=<VERSION_BEFORE_0.8> sudo apt-mark hold netpanzer

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

dnf --showduplicates list netpanzer sudo dnf downgrade netpanzer-<VERSION_BEFORE_0.8> sudo dnf versionlock add netpanzer

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.
