If this is the repository’s intended behavior then all good with me. I understand c).
Thank you for the reply Michael.
J.
P.S: All our nodes are controlled by a Salt master so it was indeed rather easy to wget and reinstall as you described. Although easy, not very convenient.

This is correct, we use reprepro and leave the old versions in the pool.
I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "put them back to the apt cache",
Julien. The only thing needed for a downgrade is:
`wget $URL && dpkg -i cassandra*.deb`
If you run lots of servers on a specific version, then I'd suggest
dropping the specific version you need in a local apt repo and use
`dpkg-scanpackages`.
Basically, it's intentional for a) getting users installing the latest
version, b) saving on download size of metadata, and probably most
importantly c) not needing a release manager to maintain a complete
local debian archive in order to scan every old version for every
release forever. We just build and upload the latest with reprepro.

This is correct, we use reprepro and leave the old versions in the pool.
I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "put them back to the apt cache",
Julien. The only thing needed for a downgrade is:
`wget $URL && dpkg -i cassandra*.deb`
If you run lots of servers on a specific version, then I'd suggest
dropping the specific version you need in a local apt repo and use
`dpkg-scanpackages`.
Basically, it's intentional for a) getting users installing the latest
version, b) saving on download size of metadata, and probably most
importantly c) not needing a release manager to maintain a complete
local debian archive in order to scan every old version for every
release forever. We just build and upload the latest with reprepro.

This is speculation on my part, but this might be due to the software used
to set up the repository. reprepro is very simple to use (and so, somewhat
popular), but it only supports one version of a package at a time. Older
deb files are not removed, but they do get dropped from the Packages file.
This repo might be setup using reprepro.

Hey,
Any reasons why old versions get removed from the Debian repository when a new version gets promoted?
For instance, here one would expect to still be able to:
$ apt-get install cassandra=3.0.10
But after that release only the latest 3.0.11 is available:
http://dl.bintray.com/apache/cassandra/dists/30x/main/binary-amd64/Packages
Old versions are still available from there:
http://dl.bintray.com/apache/cassandra/pool/main/c/cassandra/ <http://dl.bintray.com/apache/cassandra/pool/main/c/cassandra/>
But it requires to manually download and put them back to the apt cache.
It is quite handy for point releases when a rollback is required, and possible, because of regressions.
Thanks.
J.
