What is the best way to install an older android-studio version ?

I need Android Studio 2022.2.1.20 from https://developer.android.com/studio/archive

So I download the android-studio-2022.2.1.20-linux.tar.gz for Linux but I imagine I have to do my own PKGBUILD ? Maybe I can reuse android-studio PKGBUILD ? Or is there another way to choose Android Studio version with what's available on the AUR ?

BTW I am not very familiar with Android app dev, I am just setting up this to be able to package games with Unreal Engine. Requirements are the following :

Android Studio Flamingo 2022.2.1 Patch 2 May 24, 2023
Recommended: SDK 33 Minimum: SDK 30
NDK r25b
Build-tools: 33.0.1
Java runtime: OpenJDK 17.0.6 2023-01-17 (also curious to know the best way to install this one)
AGDE v23.1.82+ required for AGDE debugging.

Unzip/untar the android-studio-2022.2.1.20-linux.tar.gz
Go to "android-studio" directory
Read the "Install-Linux-tar.txt" file

No, you don't need any PKGBUILD. You already have all studio ready to go.
