Renovate performed a Major downgrade

[robinschneider]

What would you like help with?

I think I found a bug

How are you running Renovate?

Self-hosted

If you're self-hosting Renovate, tell us which platform (GitHub, GitLab, etc) and which version of Renovate.

GitHub

Please tell us more about your question or problem

Renovate did a major downgrade and marked it as a patch version. It is configured to perform auto updates for patch versions, but not for major versions. Auto merge is done via label with Prow.
It later created a patch version update and a major upgrade, back to the version it was before, but that was marked as major and needed an approval.

This is the second time this happened since we upgraded from ghcr.io/renovatebot/renovate:37.409.1 to ghcr.io/renovatebot/renovate:37.414.1.

What happened here?

Configration for renovate for RocketChat

{
      "groupName": "rocketchat",
      "matchDatasources": ["docker", "helm", "flux"],
      "matchFileNames": ["comm/deployments/rocketchat/rocketchat.yaml"],
      "matchUpdateTypes": ["minor", "patch"],
      "addLabels": ["skip-review"]
}

Logs of the cron job are already gone :(

Hi there,

Get your discussion fixed faster by creating a minimal reproduction. This means a repository dedicated to reproducing this issue with the minimal dependencies and config possible.

Before we start working on your issue we need to know exactly what's causing the current behavior. A minimal reproduction helps us with this. Discussions without reproductions are less likely to be converted to Issues.

Please follow these steps:

1. Read our guide on creating a minimal reproduction.
2. Go to our minimal reproduction template repository.
3. Select the Use this template button to create a new repository based on the template.
4. Work on the minimal reproduction in your own repository.
5. Fill out the information in your repository's README.md.
6. Add the link to your reproduction to the first post of your Discussion. If you are not the original author, you can post a new comment with the link.

Good luck,

The Renovate team

Your screenshot shows nothing wrong

That is a fail on my site, I added the wrong screenshot 🤦‍♂️

I replaced the screenshot

OK, please try to reproduce it in a reproduction repo (instructions above). If you can't reproduce it publicly because it's a private package then full debug logs of the private reproduction might be enough
