netxautomation netxeib DOWNGRADE

Affected: 3.0

Fixed in: no fixed release known

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 3.0

1. Check installed version

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

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before 3.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison netxeib sudo apt install netxeib=<VERSION_BEFORE_3.0> sudo apt-mark hold netxeib

dnf --showduplicates list netxeib sudo dnf downgrade netxeib-<VERSION_BEFORE_3.0> sudo dnf versionlock add netxeib

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.
