Hi Ihe, thanks for giving it a try. You can get the .deb from one of the debian servers [1].
For instance, from the US server: $ wget http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/b/basex/basex_7.7.2-1_all.deb As root you may install the new package with, for example: $ sudo dpkg -i ./basex_7.7.2-1_all.deb (Reading database ... 103684 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace basex 7.7.2-1 (using ./basex_7.7.2-1_all.deb) ... Unpacking replacement basex ... Setting up basex (7.7.2-1) ... Processing triggers for desktop-file-utils ... Processing triggers for mime-support ... Processing triggers for menu ... Processing triggers for man-db ... To use tagsoup, something like: $ sudo apt-get install libtagsoup-java should do the trick. I hope the warnings are gone afterwards.
