Apt-get -s install To see all possible upgrades, run a upgrade in verbose mode and (to be safe) with simulation, press n to cancel: apt-get -V -s upgrade apt-cache. The option policy can show the installed and the remote version (install candidate) of a package. Suppose you already have a package installed, but you used the install command for it anyway. Apt-get will actually look into the database, and if a newer version is available, it will upgrade the installed package to the newer one. So no harm is done by using this command — unless you don’t want the package to be upgraded. Sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -no-install-recommends yarn Note: Due to the use of nodejs instead of node name in some distros, yarn might complain about node not being installed. A workaround for this is to add an alias in your.bashrc file, like so: alias node=nodejs. To upgrade Docker Engine - Community, first run sudo apt-get update, then follow the installation instructions, choosing the new version you want to install. Install from a package. If you cannot use Docker’s repository to install Docker Engine - Community, you can download the.deb file for your release and install it manually.

When you have listed the versions to choose the specific one, you can install it with the apt-get install  command followed by the name and the version of the package. So, you need to follow the syntax as below.

The version you want to install needs to exist in repositories you have in your apt sources (/etc/apt directory contains various apt settings including added repositories). You can add a repository that you know that has the version you're looking for (or a PPA if you're on Ubuntu-derived distro).

You need to find the repository on the internet that has the version of the package (in this case gcc 3.2) and it should contain a line like:

You should add that line to /etc/apt/sources.list and then do:

Then it will find GCC 3.2 in your newly added repository. However, do note that it will most likely overwrite system's version of GCC and that can cause all sorts of trouble and is not advised unless you really know what you are doing or the system is just a virtual machine for running that particular software you need to build.

You might also need to add the GPG key for the repository and the website containing the sources.list line will likely contain information about how to do so.
