No Lisi, I don't have more info than the list regarding what you supposedly 
said on this 
topic  :-)

In any case, I've just removed the hold on the 4 chromium packages and 
upgraded. 
Everything's fine, chromium 59 does not have the issue that chrome 59 has.

In case I had to downgrade, I would have uninstalled those 4 packages, and 
reinstalled 
version 58 with dpkg, using the .deb files stored in /var/cache/apt/archives. 

I'm wonder whether Dejan's suggestion actually works:
# apt-get install package=package-version-number
Whenever I try it I always get something like this:

# apt install chromium=58.0.3029.96-1 

I believe this means the old version is no longer available in the repository. 
So if you want 
to downgrade you need to have the package stored locally. But where do you find 
old 
packages in case you no longer have them in /var/cache/apt/archives?
