eq-3 cux-daemon UPGRADE

Affected: >= 1.11a and <= 2.2.0

Fixed in: newer than 2.2.0

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 1.11a

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy cux-daemon || rpm -q cux-daemon || cux-daemon --version

2. UPGRADE to newer than 2.2.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade cux-daemon

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade cux-daemon

Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 1.11a (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison cux-daemon sudo apt install cux-daemon=<VERSION_BEFORE_1.11a> sudo apt-mark hold cux-daemon

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list cux-daemon sudo dnf downgrade cux-daemon-<VERSION_BEFORE_1.11a> sudo dnf versionlock add cux-daemon

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.

eq-3 ccu2 firmware UPGRADE

Affected: >= 2.35.16 and <= 2.45.6

Fixed in: newer than 2.45.6

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 2.35.16

Debian / Ubuntu

sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade

RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora

sudo dnf upgrade --refresh
