Sometimes you are required to install specific version of packages on your Debian based systems. This tutorial will help you to install specific version of packages using apt-get.
First of all, list all available version of the package. For example to find available version of firefox run the following command.
sudo apt policy firefox
The above command shows two version’s of firefox. Now, run the below command to install firefox version 59.0.2.
sudo apt install firefox=59.0.2+build1-0ubuntu1
