Talk:Downgrading packages
Mention passing {ic|-uu}} to pacman
Passing -u
twice to pacman makes it possible to downgrade a version of a pacman, according to the output of pacman -S --help
. It would be nice if this was mentioned here. -- Josephgbr (talk) 22:49, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
AUR packages rollback
Apparently current page already mentions how to install an older version of package from AUR by checking out older PKGBUILD. Nevertheless, there's a lot of "*-git" or "*-hg" packages, which do not quite fall under that description, since their PKGBUILD does not change with the version. For experienced users it's obvious how to find previous (working) version of a package and build it. But it might be and issue for a newbie. Or, perhaps, would it make sense put relevant section to Arch_User_Repository? Gmy (talk) 22:19, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
