typo3 air filemanager DOWNGRADE

Affected: 0.6.0

Fixed in: no fixed release known

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 0.6.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy air-filemanager || rpm -q air-filemanager || air-filemanager --version

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before 0.6.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison air-filemanager sudo apt install air-filemanager=<VERSION_BEFORE_0.6.0> sudo apt-mark hold air-filemanager

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

dnf --showduplicates list air-filemanager sudo dnf downgrade air-filemanager-<VERSION_BEFORE_0.6.0> sudo dnf versionlock add air-filemanager

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.
