This blog post serves as a work-log detailing the process of uninstalling and installing a specific version of Percona MySQL Server on Ubuntu. The post includes instructions for installation using apt utility. In this specific case we’re downgrading MySQL from 8.0.32 to 8.0.28 though you will see the problems we go through.
Jump directly to install specific version of MySQL.

Uninstall Percona Server for MySQL
Prior to uninstalling, it is recommended to create a backup. Depending on the size of the data, you can choose to use Xtrabackup, mysqldump, or mydumper. Let’s begin by backing up the existing databases, excluding the system databases for now.

Note that we have received errors in the newly installed version while loading the grants. Let’s see what is causing this issue?!
Take fresh grants from 8.0.28 and compare it with the diff tool. From the diff below we see that the grant FIREWALL_EXEMPT is erroring out. That said, as per documentation the grant is present in 8.0.27 and usable with mysql firewall plugin. Which seems not the case! Anyhow, may be this is a bug but we will proceed further for now.
