You can still downgrade. (BUT do this only if you haven't already
saved your .lyx files with 2.1.) Go to
https://launchpad.net/~lyx-devel/+archive/release/+packages?field.name_filter=&field.status_filter=superseded&field.series_filter=
, select 'Superseeded packages', then manually download the 2.0.7
packages, and install them using 'gdebi'. Consider uninstalling 2.1.0
first.
