Let me correct what I meant in my previous post a little bit, I know that for different major versions, you need to change PPA: So for 3.7 deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/gluster/glusterfs-3.7/ubuntu trusty main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/gluster/glusterfs-3.7/ubuntu trusty main For 3.6 deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/gluster/glusterfs-3.6/ubuntu trusty main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/gluster/glusterfs-3.6/ubuntu trusty main So changing between major versions works, change repo, then install. My issue is trying to install a particular minor version, or after doing an update to the latest minor version change, i.e. 3.6.5 to 3.6.9, trying to go back to an older release, if there is a problem with the latest. How does one do that in Ubuntu? This shows 3.6.9 is available: https://launchpad.net/~gluster/+archive/ubuntu/glusterfs-3.6/+packages But nothing under 3.6.9 is there, or if it is how do I get those specific ones? Say I need to go back to 3.6.7, I can locate: https://launchpad.net/~gluster/+archive/ubuntu/glusterfs-3.6/+build/8350060 But no packages there.
