This is covered in this blog post that I wrote when Aikau was moved to GitHub and we started doing weekly releases. Essentially you just need to drop a newer version of Aikau into the share/WEB-INF/lib folder and restart Share. You can download any release of Aikau from our Maven repository. There are other alternatives - especially if you're using the SDK, but it's really as simple as that.

Surf (the framework that underpins Share) will automatically select the latest version of Aikau that it finds (unless you specifically tell it to select an older version using the module deployment page).

You simply have to delete the "newer" JAR and put in the "old" version JAR, and restart the server. But you should be aware that you may break functionality in Share by downgrading Aikau and I would not recommend doing that. What is the reason that you think you have to replace Aikau with an older version? Do you have some customisations that no longer work or 3rd party addons?
