The documentation explains how to install the newest version, but I need a specific (older) version. Could someone help me with the best way to accomplish that?

The official deb & rpm repositories don't provide the previous Crystal releases. We know we want to improve that at some point in time, but it's not happening yet.

If you're on macOS/using Homebrew, you can try installing a Homebrew formula's old version. There might be a similar procedure in Linuxbrew. And I'm not sure about Arch's situation.

Official Docker images go as far as 0.13, in case that helps.

And you can always install Crystal from a .tar.gz published on the repository's Releases page. Just pick the version you prefer instead of the latest.

Don't forget that, the older the Crystal version, the less supported it'll be.
