Where the mx-linux MX-21.1 package archives are stored.
Packages numbering 22
For example:

Packages with a version number starting in "22" are part of the MX-21 release.The "MX Home" link at the top of the Forum page will show you on the top bar a link "Repos" where you can pursue your interest.

I looked in the repositories, there are only 20 and 23.

Maybe there is a separate archive storage somewhere for intermediate packages.
There was a repository http://mxl.mirror.root.lu / which intermediate stored, now they don't have either.

apt would tell you where the package would be fetched from:
This way on the terminal:

Code: Select all

apt download --print-uris mx-remaster mx-boot-options

we only keep the latest current versions for each MX release in our active repository. there is no archive. if some mirror had older packages, that mirror was out of date.

For our native packages you can go to our github
https://github.com/orgs/MX-Linux/
Find the package, search debian/changelog for the version you want, find that date in the commits and view the project as it was at that time.

Are there no archives of intermediate versions anywhere?

As I said above, you can retrieve them from github with a bit of effort. I know of no other archive of those old versions - there's no point to it since we can already get them if we must.
