oxygenz clipbucket UPGRADE

Affected: >= 5.3 and < 5.5.2-147

Fixed in: 5.5.2-147

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

dnf --showduplicates list clipbucket sudo dnf downgrade clipbucket-<VERSION_BEFORE_5.3> sudo dnf versionlock add clipbucket

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.
