Affected: 2.0

Fixed in: no fixed release known

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 2.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy new-media || rpm -q new-media || new-media --version

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before 2.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.
