Solution

  • To install a specific version of Flutter, such as version 3.0.0, using the snap command on Ubuntu, you can use the --channel option followed by the version you want to install. However, the availability of specific versions can vary, and not all versions might be available directly through snap channels.

    First, check the available channels for the Flutter snap package:

    snap info flutter
    

    This command will list the available channels and their respective versions.

    If version 3.0.0 is available in a specific channel, you can install it using:

    sudo snap install flutter --classic --channel=<desired-channel>
    

    For example, if Flutter 3.0.0 is available in a 3.0/stable channel, you would use:

    sudo snap install flutter --classic --channel=3.0/stable
    

    However, if a specific version like 3.0.0 is not available via snap channels, you might need to manually download and install it. Go to the Flutter releases page or directly to the GitHub releases page for Flutter.

    Download the flutter_linux_3.0.0-stable.tar.xz file for version 3.0.0.

    Extract the downloaded archive:

    tar xf flutter_linux_3.0.0-stable.tar.xz
    

    Move the Flutter folder to the desired installation location (e.g., /usr/local/flutter):

    sudo mv flutter /usr/local/flutter
    

    Add Flutter to your PATH:

    export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/flutter/bin"
    

    Then, source the file to apply the changes:

    source ~/.bashrc  # or source ~/.zshrc for zsh
    

    Then you can verify the Flutter installation using

    flutter --version
    

    If it displays something like flutter 3.0.0, it should have been installed correctly.
