CKAN Version:
1.25.3

KSP Version:
1.4.5

Operating System:
Linux 4.18.0-10-generic/Ubuntu 18.10 Cosmic Cuttlefish

Have you made any manual changes to your GameData folder (i.e., not via CKAN)?
negative

What steps did you take in CKAN?
Updated EER

So, I was wondering about this and found #1504 but the discussion ended with install dates (YEAH!) and a history (MOAR YEAH!).

Has this been shelved or tossed? Having a "Rollback" on each individual mode, as you do with "Reinstall", would be nice. Delete the offending mod and install the previous version (which is in all likelihood still cached). (And, yes, I'm sure it's more complicated than that, i.e. what if it depends or is a dependency do we rollback the associated mods type stuff).

I bring this up because EER just updated to 0.1.3.1 and now my log is filled with Part.AddModule errors. In order to rollback this install, Imma have to:
1 - close CKAN,
2 - delete EER,
3 - manually install EER 0.1.3,
4 - run CKAN.

(I was hoping a proper-like rollback could be accomplished by including:

  • check registry.json to verify proper version numbering (e.g. 0.1.3 vs 0.1.3.0),
  • modify installed-KSP_test.ckan to "rollback" to proper version ( 0.1.3),
    But, y'all store that info somewhereselse because even doing that doesn't change the installed version number.)

Can you uninstall that mod and then install the version you want by double clicking it as shown in #2364?

P.S. I had a nah-that's-not-possible-is-it thought about the version tab. When I d-clicked on the light-green 0.1.3 it asked me if I wanted to install 0.1.3.

YEAH! ...

Created a wiki page on this.

I've got images but don't know how to add them in.

Could we make it so that you don't need to deinstall the newer version before installing the desired version? That's a bit unintentional, at least since there is no prompt in CKAN stating that you should.

Furthermore you have do deinstall all the dependent mods too, and reinstall them again afterwards. That's not the fast and easy way.

Sorry, something went wrong.

You'd then have to coordinate dependencies with the entire process.

If you're lucky, what you suggest is easy - uninstall then install.

If you're not and there are multiple dependencies, then not so easy. (Not out of the realm of programming but def intensive and prob not worth effort.)

Sorry, something went wrong.
