gdraheim zziplib DOWNGRADE

Affected: 0.13.77

Fixed in: no fixed release known

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 0.13.77

1. Check installed version

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

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before 0.13.77 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison zziplib sudo apt install zziplib=<VERSION_BEFORE_0.13.77> sudo apt-mark hold zziplib

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

dnf --showduplicates list zziplib sudo dnf downgrade zziplib-<VERSION_BEFORE_0.13.77> sudo dnf versionlock add zziplib

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.
