user88193: I need to run bitcoind version 0.17, however the latest available version is 0.18, if I follow the instructions from this link it installs the latest version.
The below links lists the packages for the version I need however I am not sure how to use it, I mean how to install it on my local machine as apt-get install command does automatically.
https://bitcoincore.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.17.1/
Can someone help me with this please?

user63872: If you're building from source, you can select a specific version as follows:
First, review the build requirements, dependencies, and instructions for your OS:
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/tree/master/doc
Once that is done, use git to pull the source code and select a branch:
## clone the bitcoin repository
$ git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.git

## change folders
$ cd bitcoin

## check which versions are available
$ git tag

## find your desired version in the list, and then 'checkout'
$ git checkout v0.x.x

## now you can build:
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ ./make
$ sudo make install

Once you have finished the install and booted up bitcoind, you can confirm the correct version of the client and daemon are running:
bitcoin-cli getnetworkinfo
bitcoind --version
