Installing Previous Releases of Newtmgr

This page shows you how to install previous releases of newtmgr for Mac OS, Linux, and Windows.

Mac OS

You can install previous releases of newtmgr using mynewt-newtmgr@X.Y Homebrew formulas, where X.Y is a version number.

For example, if you want to install newtmgr 1.0, run the following commands:

$ brew update
$ brew install mynewt-newtmgr@1.0

Note: This is a keg-only installation. newtgmr 1.0 is installed in /usr/local/Cellar/mynewt-newtmgr@1.0/1.0.0/bin but not symlinked into /usr/local/bin.

If you need this version of newtmgr first in your PATH, run the following commands:

$ echo 'export PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/mynewt-newtmgr@1.0/1.0.0/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bash_profile
$ source ~/.bash_profile

You can also manually symlink into /usr/local/bin as follows:

1. Unlink newtmgr if you have the latest version of newtmgr installed:

   $ brew unlink mynewt-newtmgr
   

2. Link mynewt-newt@1.0 into /usr/local/bin:

   $ brew link -f mynewt-newtmgr@1.0
   

Linux

1. Download the binary:

Version	Download
1.0.0	newtmgr_1.0.0-1_amd64.deb
1.1.0	newtmgr_1.1.0-1_amd64.deb
1.3.0	newtmgr_1.3.0-1_amd64.deb

1. Run the sudo apt-get remove newtmgr command to remove the the current installation.

2. Install the package. For example, run sudo dpkg -i newtmgr_1.0.0-1_amd64.deb to install newtmgr 1.0.0

Windows

1. Download the binary:

Version	Download
1.1.0	newtmgr_1_1_0_windows_amd64.tar.gz
1.3.0	newtmgr_1_3_0_windows_amd64.tar.gz

1. Extract the file:

   • If you previously built newtmgr from the master branch, you can extract the file into your $GOPATH/bin directory. Note: This overwrites the current newtmgr.exe in the directory and assumes that you are using $GOPATH/bin for your Go applications.

     tar -xzf newtmgr_1_1_0_windows_amd64.tar.gz -C $GOPATH/bin
     

   • If you are installing newtmgr for the first time and do not have a Go workspace setup, you can extract into /usr/bin directory:

     tar -xzf newtmgr_1_1_0_windows_amd64.tar.gz -C /usr/bin
