gss iota c.ai UPGRADE

Affected: >= 1.0.0 and <= 2.1.3

Fixed in: newer than 2.1.3

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 1.0.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy iota-c.ai || rpm -q iota-c.ai || iota-c.ai --version

2. UPGRADE to newer than 2.1.3 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade iota-c.ai

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade iota-c.ai

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 1.0.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison iota-c.ai sudo apt install iota-c.ai=<VERSION_BEFORE_1.0.0> sudo apt-mark hold iota-c.ai

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

dnf --showduplicates list iota-c.ai sudo dnf downgrade iota-c.ai-<VERSION_BEFORE_1.0.0> sudo dnf versionlock add iota-c.ai

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.
