Description : Download a specific package version from snapshot.debian.org
apt-get-snapshot is a command-line tool that downloads a specific version of
a debian package from snapshot.debian.org.
.
When using debian testing, it is not trivial to get the previous version of a
package after it is upgraded. snapshot.debian.org is the source to go for these
cases, but it has only a web interface. apt-get-snapshot navigates that web
interface and fetches the desired package.
