joomsky js jobs UPGRADE

Affected: >= 1.1.5 and <= 1.4.3

Fixed in: newer than 1.4.3

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 1.1.5

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy js-jobs || rpm -q js-jobs || js-jobs --version

2. UPGRADE to newer than 1.4.3 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade js-jobs

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade js-jobs

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 1.1.5 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison js-jobs sudo apt install js-jobs=<VERSION_BEFORE_1.1.5> sudo apt-mark hold js-jobs

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

dnf --showduplicates list js-jobs sudo dnf downgrade js-jobs-<VERSION_BEFORE_1.1.5> sudo dnf versionlock add js-jobs

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.
