Can I Install an Older Version and If So, How? #885

Closed Dewey3 closed 7 months ago

Dewey3 commented 7 months ago

Can I do a "fresh" install of an older version of TrunkRecorder and if so, how? (And will it still work if newer items like GNU Radio get installed?). I really like the 9-15-2022, 10a2763 release since that is the last version that can keep up with rapidly changing user IDs on very busy systems. I have an imaged fresh install of that version from back in late September 2022 that I can blow out, but I just want to create another brand new "fresh" install of that version on Bookworm and make some little system tweaks and changes.

If you're manually building, you should be able to just switch to that commit before building. Something like:

git clone https://github.com/robotastic/trunk-recorder.git
cd trunk-recorder
git checkout 10a2763

That being said, it's probably a good reminder to try and dig in and fix the root cause...

Thanks @tadscottsmith. I got a bunch of <command-line>: warning: "SPDLOG_FMT_EXTERNAL" redefined type errors, but it is the version I wanted and is working. Thanks again.

Alternatively, one can go to the commit history, then "< >" button on right side for the desired commit, then green "Code" button then "Download ZIP"

I know this topic is closed but for those who still see it ... during the 1/13-1/15 holiday weekend, I attempted to install the older version of TrunkRecorder using the git checkout line several times, all without success. Every time I tried, the installation aborted around 13%, so my guess is that there have now been enough changes and upgrade that this older version will no longer work. It installed fine each time I used the current version. However, there is one difference. This weekend I was trying to install it on Linux (Kali), but all of the other old version installs was to a RPi. If I can break some spare time this week, I may try a RPi git checkout install just to see if I get the same failure.
