Ubuntu Package is not latest version

You can get the 0.13 version from https://launchpad.net/~phw/+archive/musicbrainz. I have updated the release versions for Picard on Launchpad, too, but we might forget about that again in the future. We use Launchpad mainly for code hosting, not so much for release planing.

I doubt that the packages for older Ubuntu releases will get an update.

Thanks a bunch!

At least it might make it into newer Ubuntu versions.

BTW it would be good to list the ppa on the musicbrainz Picard wiki
page ... I think it's not mentioned.

Cheers,
Philip

PPAs aren't a wise distribution mechanism. I'll update the package, push a branch to LP and ask someone to merge it to Ubuntu.

FWIW:

$ apt-get install bzr-builddep

$ bzr branch lp:ubuntu/picard

$ cd picard; bzr merge-upstream; ...cleanup...; bzr bd; # test

$ bzr push lp:~ME/ubuntu/picard/NEWVERS

And propose it for merging on the web site. Something like that.

Version 0.14 is out now, and I think there will be another new version shortly.

This bug was fixed in the package picard - 0.15-0ubuntu1

0.15.1 came out 2001-07-31, is there any way to still include it in Oneiric? Changelog is here: https://github.com/musicbrainz/picard/blob/master/NEWS.txt
Or should I open a new bug report for this?
