xiaowen huang yingzhi python programming language DOWNGRADE

Affected: 1.9

Fixed in: no fixed release known

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 1.9

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy yingzhi-python-programming-language || rpm -q yingzhi-python-programming-language || yingzhi-python-programming-language --version

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before 1.9 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison yingzhi-python-programming-language sudo apt install yingzhi-python-programming-language=<VERSION_BEFORE_1.9> sudo apt-mark hold yingzhi-python-programming-language

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

dnf --showduplicates list yingzhi-python-programming-language sudo dnf downgrade yingzhi-python-programming-language-<VERSION_BEFORE_1.9> sudo dnf versionlock add yingzhi-python-programming-language

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.
