Installing a specific nginx-extras package on ubuntu

Question

I am trying to install nginx-extras on Ubuntu with

sudo apt-get install nginx-extras

It works fine, but it installs the latest version. I need a very specific version, but none of my attempts to provide version are working.

Answer 1

You could install exact version (if it exists in your repos) with package-name=VERSION syntax.

Eg:

sudo apt-get install nginx-extras=1:1.10.0-8.5.0.28~wily1
