mem0 mem0 DOWNGRADE

Affected: 1.0.0

Fixed in: no fixed release known

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 1.0.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy mem0 || rpm -q mem0 || mem0 --version

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE to a release before 1.0.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison mem0 sudo apt install mem0=<VERSION_BEFORE_1.0.0> sudo apt-mark hold mem0

2. No fixed release: DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list mem0 sudo dnf downgrade mem0-<VERSION_BEFORE_1.0.0> sudo dnf versionlock add mem0

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.
