AW: apt-get install refuses to installs older versions of dependencies

Thanks for your suggestion

We are using CI/CD pipelines that deploy multiple versions / debian packages per day.

So appending version suffixes to packages names would make our package lists hard to read.

```
$ apt search ^foo
foo-1.0.0
foo-1.0.1
foo-1.0.2
foo-1.1.0
...
foo-1.999.0
```
