For that to work, you need to add <downgrade cmd="..."/> actions to your package. But as this isn't really a downgrade, I'd recommend to use the real version numbers as revisions. Sth. like "3.5.1.1" => "3.5.3" will be correctly interpreted as an upgrade while "3511" => "353" will not. Cheers, Malte |
