I see no reason that anything is *unsafe* in downgrading.

The changes listed all seem to be Debian "housekeeping".  Ensuring
that the package is buildable, has correct build dependencies and
latest translated debconf information.  There are no changes that are
security related or, as far as I can see, related to the runtime
programs at all.
