Hi @JoseGalvan,
Yes, it’s possible! As long as you find a way to install those exact versions that is.
Let’ start with Python:
To install Python 2 version on Ubuntu 20.04 enter one of the following commands:
sudo apt install python2
OR
sudo apt install python-minimal
Then you can check your current Python version with:
$ python2 -V
Python 2.7.17
Now, installing Django:
You need to have pip installed first:
apt-get install python-pip
You might need to do something like:
apt-get install python2-pip
Once you have pip for python2, you can run:
pip install Django==1.8.1
