i would say so, yes.
after all, downgrading packages is not really supported.
(the usual impliciation being, that configuration files will only be
converted into one direction.)

since i'm pretty convinced that your problem is not about the actual
Pd-version, i'm going to spend approximately zero time to support
downgrading if i'm not forced by some policy to do so).

so rather than spending much time with downgrading the package, i would
do other tests, like creating a new user and see whether the problem
persists in the pristine account.

(you also might want to consider adding the additional information
requested in your sf ticket.)

Thanks, I was suspecting this. Out of interest, is it normal that the
meta package does not downgrade the depending packages?

the problem is, that "puredata" is only a meta-package that depends on
puredata-core, puredata-gui and more.
downgrading the meta-package might not downgrade puredata-gui and
puredata-core (the latter being the one that prints the version number,
the former being the one that would have the problems with the font).

Actually, if I install via

sudo aptitude install puredata=0.47.1-3

$ pd -version 
still gives me
Pd-0.48.1 ("") compiled for Debian (0.48.1-4) on 2018/03/04 at 19:05:23

weird...

No problem here on ubuntu16.04/gnome "flashback", with self-compiled Pd.
Do you still have the problem if you compile and install Pd by yourself?

Has anyone else got the same problem? I am reluctant to go back to
apt/Debian's pd 0.47.1-3.

Thanks!

I might be a bug with calculating the size based on current zoom factor. Zoom 
of 2 with font size 12 is 24...
