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

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

apt-cache madison re sudo apt install re=<VERSION_BEFORE_kyu> sudo apt-mark hold re

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

dnf --showduplicates list re sudo dnf downgrade re-<VERSION_BEFORE_kyu> sudo dnf versionlock add re

Downgrade risk
