[Bug 2041845] [NEW] Notifies about some ancient downgrades on every boot

[Mykola Yaroshenko]

Public bug reported:

Preparing for upgrade from 22.04 to 23.04 some packages were downgraded
(or just marked as such?) and now update-notifier reminds me about them
on every boot, this makes me likely to miss important upgrades
available, because I tend now to dismiss it without looking.

google-chrome-stable was upgraded many times since then, but I still get
notifications about that 113.0... version. Btw, it says about downgrade
from the current version!

It's update-notifier/lunar,now 3.192.64 amd64
