How to downgrade a Synology DSM package that has dependent packages.

How to downgrade a Synology DSM package that has dependent packages

Initial Situation

  • Package OpenERP, installed in version 7.0.0-0106
  • Package Python Modules, previously installed in version 0114, was automatically updated to version 0115
  • The update caused OpenERP to fail, due to missing compatibility with Python Modules in version 0115
  • No update available for OpenERP because it is EOL and replaced by https://www.odoo.com/

Problem

Synology DSM is not capable of downgrading individual packages and you can not uninstall a package (to install the older version), when there are packages installed, that depend on the package to be downgraded.
