Weird one today. Discord seems to have been downgraded to 0.0.89 after 2 weeks.

Checksum matches the currently available download from Discord's website. The checksum is the same as #124. Weird indeed, but 0.0.90 is no longer launching.

I'm a little concerned apt may not pick the version number up without a full-upgrade since it's newer. Will test when it's in staging.

While researching what's going on here, I found a config line that supposedly disables Discord's update check, which would prevent it from refusing to launch when a newer version's available: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Discord#Discord_asks_for_an_update_not_yet_available_in_the_repository

May be something to look into adding to our packaging. (The problem being that this is currently not really our packaging, just Discord's packaging hosted on our server.)

Discord posted about the rollback in an incident report on their status page (they "resolved" an incident by rolling back): https://discordstatus.com/incidents/mv9k3px764kd

It seems our CI isn't even wanting to update Discord when the version number's lower. I'll have to prepare an update to bump the version number above 90.

Ok, #127 and #128 didn't do what I wanted them to; this repo's build system is set up to pull the version number from the package itself, not from our config, so apt still sees the version number as 0.0.89 (and thus as lower than 0.0.90). However, it's available to downgrade to with sudo apt install discord=0.0.89 now.

To enable a normal update to the older version, we'd need to modify the .deb file, host it somewhere ourself, and point the config there.

Thanks for your effort! They seem to have fixed the bugs pretty fast, there is already a 0.0.91 release, see #130.
