Don't forget to comment > out or remove that preference and apt source after you downgrade the packages. If you do it like that, ALL packages will be downgrade to snapshot level. I think it is better to restrict this activity to just the two packages i question. Here is what I did: 1) Download the 2 packages from http://snapshot.debian.org/. There is a "search binary package" function which allows to search for libkdecorations2-5 and libkdecorations2private5. Download versions 4:5.3.2-1 2) Install them via "dkpg -i <packagename>" 3) Pin the two packages to prevent future upgrades: Package: libkdecorations2-5 Pin: version 4:5.3.2-1 Pin-Priority: 1000 Package: libkdecorations2private5 Pin: version 4:5.3.2-1 Pin-Priority: 1000 That does the trick on my machine.
