The fact is that when upstream suggests to downgrade at-spi2, it is difficult to know what should be downgraded. Basically we downgrade at-spi2-core, and it should be enough (i.e. it should downgrade or make user downgrade manually -common and libatspi2.0). Instead, we need to search for all packages containing atspi string and guess that they are all dependant and should be downgraded.

More generally, I guess that updating one package while the others are not included in the process as not dependent may cause problems.

The problem mentioned here seems also to be mainly in another package: 
libatspi2.0.

The libatspi2.0 binary package is part of the at-spi2-core source
package (which happens to also ship the at-spi2-core binary package)

SO why can I make them change version independently? If I downgrade
at-spi2-core, why dont I get a message requiring I also downgrade -common
and libatspi2.0?

Because there's no real strict dependency? Which actual issue do you
encounter?

Samuel
