downgrade ppa packages to versions available at a previous point in time
- by Will
The backstory is that the normal Intel GPU drivers don't do the various OpenGL extensions that my hobby coding and some games want. So I have to install xorg-edgers and then its happy. However, last Wednesday or so there was an update to xorg-edgers - lots of packages - and it broke badly; the drivers lock up and take the whole computer with them; hard reset required.
So how can you downgrade - select package versions in a PPA that represent a point in the past, ignoring versions newer than that?
