    The best part of using Nvidia drivers on Linux was when a newer package version dropped support for my card, because fuck me.

    Since then I became paranoid and started backing up all of my apt cache debs.

      You can run

      apt install package=version
      

      to be explicit about it.

        It was gone from the repo IIRC, I couldn’t downgrade from Synaptic.

          Nothing is ever gone. You can always install whatever bug-ridden version you want of anything.
