How to install the latest version of one particular package

rated 0 times [ 8] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 888 / 1 Year ago, wed, february 15, 2023, 4:28:23

I am running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS on the intended laptop, with the following package power-profiles-daemon 0.10.1-3, which I would like to update to version 0.12 to test if that will allow me to have "performance" as an option on the power management tool. But I don't know how to do that.

EDIT 1: It worked! By doing this, I got the option to enable "performance" on the power management tool. Since the solution worked and it didn't break the system (if possible, I always stick to LTS releases) I will post here and on my other post what I did.

$ sudo apt update

...

$ wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/p/power-profiles-daemon/power-profiles-daemon_0.12-1_amd64.deb

...

$ sudo apt install ./power-profiles-daemon_0.12-1_amd64.deb

...

Then I rebooted, opened settings and selected "performance", which wasn't previously available.

To install the power-profiles-daemon version 0.12 package from Ubuntu 22.10 in Ubuntu 22.04 run the following commands from the terminal:

sudo apt update

wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/p/power-profiles-daemon/power-profiles-daemon_0.12-1_amd64.deb

sudo apt install ./power-profiles-daemon_0.12-1_amd64.deb

This method of manually downloading the power-profiles-daemon .deb package and installing it does not require making any changes to your software sources, so it will not create an unmaintainable operating system that has mixed software sources from the repositories of two or more different Ubuntu releases.
