Comment 12 for bug 1962807

Per the above dpkg search and looking at /var/cache/apt/archives I see the following:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 195976 Feb 16 05:54 gir1.2-gtk-3.0_3.24.20-0ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 28756 Feb 16 05:54 gtk-update-icon-cache_3.24.20-0ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 22380 Feb 16 05:54 libgail-3-0_3.24.20-0ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2620492 Feb 16 05:54 libgtk-3-0_3.24.20-0ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 61884 Feb 16 05:54 libgtk-3-bin_3.24.20-0ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 234388 Feb 16 05:54 libgtk-3-common_3.24.20-0ubuntu1.1_all.deb

So I should download the corresponding files from launchpad to a new directory and then issue the sudo dpkg -i *.deb command from there to replace the updated files on my system, correct?

Should there be anything else I ought to do before issuing the sudo dpkg command? Should I take any action to ensure I don't accidentally "update" these files and get back into the same situation? I think I can "lock" them in synaptic and there may be other ways to accomplish the same thing.
