How to install previous versions on linux
Hello!
Sorry if this is explained somewhere, but I can't find it. I need to install a previous version of calibre in Ubuntu x64. I have found the previous versions .tar.bz2 files, but I don't know how to install them. So please, can someone tell me how to install a previous version? Please, don't ask me why or try to argue about the convenience or not. I've found a lot of people asking how to install a previous version, but everybody started talking about the inconvenience and did not give a solution Thank you! |
