Roll back to Arduino 022

Development Tools IDE 1.x

Anyone know how I can roll back from Arduino IDE 1.0 to Arduino IDE 022 on Ubuntu 12.04, please?

022 was working perfectly well on my Ubuntu machine, but I got an uninvited 'upgrade' to 1.0, which has broken a lot of my code. It looks like the simplest and most straightforward way to get it all working again is go back to 022.

I did that by just going back and downloading the rev 022 installation to a different directory. Then I created a shortcut for it alongside the 1.0. change the extension of the script back to .pde and recompile with the 022 rev.

I think you're referring to a Windows installation. I'm using Ubuntu.

Thanks for the reply.

How did you install? Did you use a package manager? There are recent instructions in this forum for installing multiple releases of Arduino on Linux. It's actually easier on Linux.

Honestly, just go to http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Software and grab the appropriate 022 archive and follow the instructions to install that to a new location.

Yes, it was more straightforward than I anticipated. The tarballs are self contained without any 'funny' dependencies.

Thanks for the replies.

It's not straightforward after all - the latest avr libraries appear to be incompatible with Arduino 023, so I'm getting errors relating to avr libraries (linking errors I guess).

'Post the errors' you say? I'll have to carefully copy them by hand as it seems that you can't simply select/copy/paste from the IDE errors window!

I'm getting pig-sick of all this - why was the IDE 'fixed' when it wasn't broken? 022 worked perfectly well for me, and I guess lots of others!
