Hi all,

Say I want to install a specific version of a package, if that version is not in the apt repository, apt-get will return an error.

I googled around, and the solution I found was to install the said package via http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/

That said, this solution seems to require installing individual packages. Is there a way to add something like this to the sources list and therefore get access to all package versions automatically?

Thanks!
