Right... that was my error...

Is there a way to get older versions of some package? A repository of
every version of the packages?

I had another machine that ad Apache 1.3.29.0.2-3, but it just upgraded
without problems.
I made a diff between /usr/share/apache from 1.3.29.0.2-3 and
1.3.29.0.2-4. It's attached.

But the only solution that I see is to get the older version and install
it. But I don't know how to get older versions...
