I don't believe that the PPA mechanism allows you to have multiple versions. I believe that the OBA repos do have multiple versions.

when you want to have your systems consistant, it's a really good idea to have local mirrors of the distros and install from the local mirrors. There have been cases in the past where packages have disappeard off the Internet, and other cases where packages have been replaced with different contents. installing from a local mirror is also faster.

you can also have multiple internal repos so that you can have one that your prod system updates against, a different one for QA, and a different one for dev (super-advanced, you can have multiple for each environment with the systems auto-updating against their repo and manage your roll-out of updates by updting the repo contents)

Subject: [rsyslog] Adiscon ubuntu repository and versions

Hi,

I'm using adiscon repository at http://ppa.launchpad.net/adiscon/v8-stable/ubuntu/ to install rsyslog packages in my ubuntu systems.

I can check now that version at this repository is 8.2001 but I have 8.1911 in my systems. Is there any way to get the 8.1911 version from this repository (or another)?, because I want all my systems with the same version (and I would like not to upgrade them).

Could it be possible for maintainers to publish updated packages without removing older ones?
