python - anaconda/conda - install a specific package version

Question

I want to install the 'rope' package in my current active environment using conda. Currently, the following 'rope' versions are available:

                             1.2.0                    py34_0  defaults        
                             1.2.0                    py35_0  defaults        
                             1.3.0                    py27_0  defaults        
                             1.3.0                    py34_0  defaults        
                             1.3.0                    py35_0  defaults

                             0.9.4                    py27_0  defaults        
                             0.9.4                    py33_0  defaults        
                             0.9.4                    py34_0  defaults        
                             0.9.4                    py26_1  defaults        
                             0.9.4                    py27_1  defaults        
                             0.9.4                    py33_1  defaults        
                             0.9.4                    py34_1  defaults        
                          .  0.9.4                    py35_1  defaults        

I would like to install the following one:

                         1.3.0                    py35_0  defaults        

I've tried all sorts of permutations of 'conda install' which I'm not going to list here because none of them are correct.

I am also not sure what the py35_0 is (I'm assuming this is the version of the python against which the package was built?) and I also don't know what 'defaults' means?

To install a specific package:

conda install <pkg>=<version>

eg:

conda install matplotlib=1.4.3
