trcore dvc UPGRADE

Affected: >= 6.0 and < 6.4

Fixed in: 6.4

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 6.0

1. Check installed version

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

2. UPGRADE to 6.4 (Debian / Ubuntu)

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

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade dvc

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 6.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison dvc sudo apt install dvc=<VERSION_BEFORE_6.0> sudo apt-mark hold dvc

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

dnf --showduplicates list dvc sudo dnf downgrade dvc-<VERSION_BEFORE_6.0> sudo dnf versionlock add dvc

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.
