I think historical versions of packages are deleted from the repositories as soon as no dist is pointing to them. So you cant install a explicit version of a package. There are way's to prevent updating from a specific (or current) package version tough. /Andreas _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
