The release notes state:

What this means to you as a 12.04 user:

* 1.4.2 is the last stable release in the 1.4 series (unless there's some major 
issues that need fixing in which case
there will be a 1.4.3 which will also be supported on ubuntu 12.04).  The 1.4.2 
release is still current and fully
supported on 12.04 (and 13.10, for that matter).

* the current unstable (1.5, which will be released as 1.6) will not be 
packaged for anything pre-14.04.

* you will always have the option to build from source.  It's quite easy.  I go 
through this in detail in this video:
