LinuxQuestions.org - Install an older version of a package using apt-get

I am getting this when I build a project in JBoss Seam:

Code:

asookazian@asookazian-desktop:/opt/jboss-seam-2.2.1.CR1/examples/booking:10:30 PM:$ant clean explode

Buildfile: build.xml



clean:



initcopy:



initpoms:

    [echo] Setting up dependencies



BUILD FAILED

/opt/jboss-seam-2.2.1.CR1/build/common.build.xml:95: The following error occurred while executing this line:

/opt/jboss-seam-2.2.1.CR1/build/utilities.build.xml:18: Directory /opt/jboss-seam-2.2.1.CR1/classes/poms creation was not successful for an unknown reason



Total time: 0 seconds

How can I install Ant 1.7.0 (i.e. an older version of an existing package)?

Code:

asookazian@asookazian-desktop:/opt/jboss-seam-2.2.1.CR1/examples/booking:10:31 PM:$sudo apt-get install ant=1.7.0

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree      

Reading state information... Done

E: Version '1.7.0' for 'ant' was not found

I downloaded the zip file for 1.7.0 but I need to redo all the symbolic link stuff, no?

Code:

asookazian@asookazian-desktop:/usr/bin:10:34 PM:$ls -la ant | less

Code:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 2010-03-23 06:15 ant -> ../share/ant/bin/ant

I'd like to keep both versions of the ant package in my Ubuntu 9.10 system if possible...
