shopizer shopizer UPGRADE

Affected: >= 2.0 and <= 2.17.0

Fixed in: newer than 2.17.0

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 2.0

1. Check installed version

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

2. UPGRADE to newer than 2.17.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade shopizer

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

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 2.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison shopizer sudo apt install shopizer=<VERSION_BEFORE_2.0> sudo apt-mark hold shopizer

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

dnf --showduplicates list shopizer sudo dnf downgrade shopizer-<VERSION_BEFORE_2.0> sudo dnf versionlock add shopizer

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.
