unknown wpvr UPGRADE

Affected: >= 8.5.55 and < 9.1.3

Fixed in: 9.1.3

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 8.5.55

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy wpvr || rpm -q wpvr || wpvr --version

2. UPGRADE to 9.1.3 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade wpvr

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade wpvr

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 8.5.55 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison wpvr sudo apt install wpvr=<VERSION_BEFORE_8.5.55> sudo apt-mark hold wpvr

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

dnf --showduplicates list wpvr sudo dnf downgrade wpvr-<VERSION_BEFORE_8.5.55> sudo dnf versionlock add wpvr

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.
