LXD does not support installing older unsupported versions.
The LXD 5.xx releases are only supported for 1 month, so to keep up to date with security and bug fixes you should ideally run on latest/stable
channel or one of the LTS channels such as 5.0/stable
.
See
https://documentation.ubuntu.com/lxd/en/latest/installing/#choose-your-release
We do provide the last few monthly releases as static channels for installing specific versions so as to allow more control as to when the systems are upgraded. However it is still expected that systems are manually upgraded frequently when using these monthly releases.
The article above covers the snap store proxy which would allow you to control exactly which revision your cluster systems get, so that would be a supported way of achieving a specific version.
