How to choose specific versions of packages to download using conda?

I am trying to install a specific package version and not quite sure how to access a specific version. When I type conda install SomePackage it just downloads the latest default. How can I choose specific versions?

Currently I want this package GDAL 2.2.4 I see it listed here: https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/gdal/files

But how do I use the conda prompt to download that specific version?

Thanks

It's the same if you are building using using an environment.yml file. This environment.yml downloads the java 1.8 conda package, and the pip pyspark package.

  name: my-conda-env
  channels:
      - defaults
  dependencies:
      - python=3.6
      - pip
      - ipython
      - jupyter
      - openjdk=8.0.152
    - pip:
      - pyspark

Please note this configuration (conda java + pip pyspark) is useful if you're building and deploying a pypi packages (instead of conda environments) to prebuilt docker containers set up for spark already.

According to Anaconda documentation you should do:

conda install package=version ,like:

conda install scipy=0.15.0

Check the documentation case you have mode doubt: https://conda.io/docs/user-guide/tasks/manage-pkgs.html

Or maybe the problem is the version of the package.
