How to install PyDev 2.8.2 in Eclipse

I want to install PyDev 2.8.2 in Eclipse because my Eclipse version is too old for 3.x.x compatibility. However by using the update site http://pydev.org/updates and having unchecked the box "Show only the latest versions ...", only 3.4.1 is showing up and I can't seen any 2.8.2.

I use Ubuntu and would like to know how to install 2.8.2.

I do not currenlty have any version installed.

Is Eclipse PyDev free?

PyDev is open source and depends on your contributions! This may be in the form of bug fixes, answers on stackoverflow, new features... Another option is financially supporting it at: Patreon (which provides a way to support it monthly and get rewards starting with $1).

The pydeve.org/updates URL/site only hosts the newest version of pydev. If you need to install a different version you need to change the URL to one from http://www.pydev.org/update_sites/.

they are structured like http://www.pydev.org/update_sites/#.#.#

The link http://pydev.org/updates is just a re-direction to where the update site is now hosted, it appears.

Try with http://update-production-pydev.s3.amazonaws.com/pydev/updates

Also, make sure 'Show only latest version...' option is unchecked in the Install New Software wizard.
