Please help me install the specific version of mysql server.

I tried to install it using apt-config, but failed because the required version 5.7.18 seems to be out of this package.

You could compile it from source.

Thanks. But problem is the following.

I found out the required deb packages, for example here: http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.mysql.com/Downloads/MySQL-5.7/

Is there the one deb package or do I need download all the (common, community, server, client, etc) packages one by one and then isntall them?

Could you please provide me with the instruction or example on how to completely install from the source?

Is this instruction works?

So I must download the required bundle.tar and follow these steps, isn't it?
