Suggestions needed to upgrade Debian 7.8 to Debian 8.5 (Not 8.6)
Hello,
I need to upgrade my Debian system 7.8 to 8.5 but by default via apt-get It moves to 8.6 version(latest stable version). I'm new to Debian so didn't figure out the solution.
I've checked few suggestions over internet like editing apt source list file using snapshot archive.
Please suggest the steps that I should follow to achieve it.
Thank You!
Regards,

apt-cudf
APT-CUDF(1) DOSE Tools APT-CUDF(1)
NAME
apt-cudf - CUDF solver integration for APT
SYNOPSIS
solvername
DESCRIPTION
apt-cudf translates back and forth among a CUDF-based dependency solver and the protocol used by APT to talk with external dependency
solvers. apt-cudf therefore allows to use any CUDF solver as an external solver for APT.
apt-cudf relies on its "argv[0]" name to find the CUDF solver to invoke. In common setups, you should have a CUDF solver specification
file under /usr/share/cudf/solvers/ for each installed CUDF solver. To use one such solver with APT, you should create a symbolic link
pointing to /usr/bin/apt-cudf under /usr/lib/apt/solvers/ and call it with the name of the CUDF solver you want to use.
OPTIONS
-v
--verbose
Print debugging information during operation. Can be repeated.
-h
--help
Show usage information and exit.
--version
Show program's version and exit.
--dump
Dump the cudf universe and solution
--noop
Dump the cudf universe and solution and exit. This is useful to generate a cudf universe from a edsp file
--conf
Use a configuration file. Default in /etc/apt-cudf.conf
-s <solver>
--solver <solver>
Specify the external solver to use.
-e
--explain
Print a human-readable summary of the solution.
--native-arch
Speficy the native architecture to be used in the edsp -> cudf translation. By default apt-cudf uses apt-config to deduce the native
architecture. This option is useful if the edsp was generated on a machine with a different architecture.
--foreign-archs
A comma-separated list of foreign architectures to be used in the edsp -> cudf translation
