llvm llvm DOWNGRADE

Affected: 2022-11-01

Fixed in: no fixed release known

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 2022-11-01

1. Check installed version

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

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before 2022-11-01 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison llvm sudo apt install llvm=<VERSION_BEFORE_2022-11-01> sudo apt-mark hold llvm

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

dnf --showduplicates list llvm sudo dnf downgrade llvm-<VERSION_BEFORE_2022-11-01> sudo dnf versionlock add llvm

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.
