loway queuemetrics UPGRADE

Affected: >= 22.11.6 and < 24.05.5

Fixed in: 24.05.5

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 22.11.6 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison queuemetrics sudo apt install queuemetrics=<VERSION_BEFORE_22.11.6> sudo apt-mark hold queuemetrics

dnf --showduplicates list queuemetrics sudo dnf downgrade queuemetrics-<VERSION_BEFORE_22.11.6> sudo dnf versionlock add queuemetrics

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.
