The issue is the PPA does not change and the moment a new version is released (even minor versions), the old packages are lost forever. Even if you go to the PPA itself, the binaries seem to be deleted there.
apt-chache showpkg glusterfs only shows the latest version available, none of the older ones are displayed so that you can then downgrade.
I am not sure if there is another way of doing this, but I have never managed to successfully find and install the older releases without manually obtaining the .deb files if I can find them.

The one thing that still remains a mystery to me is how to downgrade
glusterfs packages in Ubuntu. I have never been able to do that. There
was also a post from someone about it recently on the list and I do
not think it got any replies.
I would have assumed something like:
1. stop volume(s)
2. if needed: reset gluster options not available is older version
3. if needed: downgrade op-version
4. stop all gluster daemons :)
5. sudo apt-get purge gluster*
6. sudo ppa-purge <gluster ppa>
7. Install older ppa.
8. install older gluster service
9. Start services
10. check peers and status
11. start volume
12. test
if 2) and 3) can't be done then I presume you can't downgrade.
