Indeed, the lowest level of problem of not having the binaries is solved by
leaving them in the repo. This is what I am using to move the binaries into
our own internal repo.

We would greatly prefer if the previous versions could also be in the PPA's
package listing, this would allow for specifying an installation of a
specific version. Currently, if we specify a version of rsyslog to be
installed via Ansible, when the new package is release all new Ansible runs
will fail. This is because we were, correctly or not, relying on the PPA
still listing these versions. Unfortunately, I do not know how to do this
but am researching it as I believe it would help many others besides myself.

While I agree that having them more readily available would be nice, I'll also point out that it's a good idea to run your own repo locally. This lets you control the version by what you put in the repo rather than hard-coding it in your config.

I have not seen anywhere one can enable archives.  Someone on irc
pointed
out though that all the old file appear to be at the following link.

http://ppa.launchpad.net/adiscon/v8-stable/ubuntu/pool/main/r/rsyslog/


so this seems to solve the root issue (at least "in a way"), doesn't it?

I researched if mirroring ppa's is possible, but it seems like it is
not.
There is some kind of sftp access but it does not work. RSync is not
enabled as well.
So the only thing left would be to grab the stuff by http and copy it
manually.

Alternative does somebody know if we can enable archives in the ppa
somehow?
This would solve at least the downgrade issue.

This sounds like we really are going to end up with the equivalent
of
the old
adiscon repo in addition to the PPA repo.

After checking further into it,  they are correct.  It looks like
ppa's don't archive older version like the main ubuntu repo
would.
It is unfortunate they do it like that.

Would it be a lot of work to provide the older deb's on this
page.

If
you can tell them what they need to change, I am sure they will
do.

Someone posted on the IRC channel had some issues after the
upgrade
to
8.6.0 and wanted to downgrade to what they have installed prior
to
the upgrade.

Can some of the older versions be left around so people may
downgrade
if
needed?

Currently someone would have to go find an old .deb file to
downgrade
vs
using something like apt-get install rsyslog=8.4.2

You can also see all the versions available via,  apt-cache
policy
rsyslog

Thanks,

Todd
