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.
