Here is an archived copy of the instructions from 18 months ago: https://web.archive.org/web/20150516124256/http://trac.macports.org/wiki/howto/InstallingOlderPort I rewrote many parts of the instructions a week or two ago, but unfortunately these have not been archived at archive.org yet. > Is there a way to figure that out at the command line?

In place of using the web-based repository browser that is part of our Trac installation, you can use the command-line svn client. For example, if you were trying to downgrade to boost 1.58.0 now that we've updated boost in MacPorts to 1.59.0, you could run svn log https://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports/devel/boost/ --limit 5 to see the last 5 log entries for boost. If you didn't find what you were looking for in the 5 most recent revisions, you could increase that number. The Subversion URL will always begin with https://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports/ and then continue with the category name and main port name; you can find these in the third column of the output you see when running "port list boost": port list boost boost @1.59.0 devel/boost _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
