You can pick any release of yarn by looking at https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/releases and scrolling and paging to version you need.

For yarn 0.27.5, go to https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/releases/tag/v0.27.5 you can see all the packages for yarn 0.27.5. Download yarn_0.27.5_all.deb (Ubuntu is a Debian-based Linux) then you can install it with dpkg .

# wget https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/releases/download/v0.27.5/yarn_0.27.5_all.deb
