lead technologies leadtools raster image sdk DOWNGRADE

Affected: 14.5

Fixed in: no fixed release known

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 14.5

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy leadtools-raster-image-sdk || rpm -q leadtools-raster-image-sdk || leadtools-raster-image-sdk --version

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before 14.5 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison leadtools-raster-image-sdk sudo apt install leadtools-raster-image-sdk=<VERSION_BEFORE_14.5> sudo apt-mark hold leadtools-raster-image-sdk

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

dnf --showduplicates list leadtools-raster-image-sdk sudo dnf downgrade leadtools-raster-image-sdk-<VERSION_BEFORE_14.5> sudo dnf versionlock add leadtools-raster-image-sdk

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.
