I need to run cppcheck on several machines with different versions of Ubuntu. Normally I install cppcheck with sudo apt-get install cppcheck.

Well, one of the machines is running Ubuntu 16.04. An other is running Ubuntu 16.10.

I figured now out, that my installation process installs different versions on the machines. One machine has cppcheck 1.72-1, the other machine has cppcheck 1.75-2. I already found out, that this is a normal behavior. You can even check the installation candidates here.

Well, I need the same version an all machines. So I tried this: sudo apt-get install cppcheck=1.72-1. But then I get the error: E: Version '1.72-1' for 'cppcheck' was not found

You could use 

apt-get download cppcheck
to download the deb-package file and install this on different machines with 
apt install ./cppcheck_1.72-1_amd64.deb
But this is not always working if (for example) decencies to library-versions or other packages are not met on one of the destination machines.
