How to get old vscode-python-debugger or manually build it?

[lch32111]

Hello.

I want to debug my python 3.6 code in vs code. So I need to install the old vscode python debugger. When I try to find an old version of python debugger, the vs code marketplace only displays 2024.0.0 version. So, I came here and checked that there is a build folder, but there is no instruction for how to build it manually.

Can I know how to get a vsix file for the old python debugger or how to build manually? (I can get the old debugger code from this repository with the older tag in the release page).

Thanks for your issue report, you can follow the steps here in order to install a pre-release version of the extension.

@paulacamargo25 Thanks. It was easy, but confused because other extensions such as vscode python could show previous versions without doing pre-release things. Anyway Thanks!
