linshenkx prompt optimizer UPGRADE

Affected: >= 1.3.0 and <= 1.4.2

Fixed in: newer than 1.4.2

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 1.3.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy prompt-optimizer || rpm -q prompt-optimizer || prompt-optimizer --version

2. UPGRADE to newer than 1.4.2 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade prompt-optimizer

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade prompt-optimizer

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 1.3.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison prompt-optimizer sudo apt install prompt-optimizer=<VERSION_BEFORE_1.3.0> sudo apt-mark hold prompt-optimizer

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

dnf --showduplicates list prompt-optimizer sudo dnf downgrade prompt-optimizer-<VERSION_BEFORE_1.3.0> sudo dnf versionlock add prompt-optimizer

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.
