If I remember correctly, Ubuntu uses Debian Sid's packages, which are

Unfortunately,
the best way to get GNUstep packages for most distributions is still
to
compile it yourself. Fortunately, compiling GNUstep based program is
quite
a bit easier than others (no need for ./configure, except on core
libraries). I'm not sure who makes the Debian packages, but I assume
he
reads this mailing list and could explain why they have yet to be
upgraded
(keep in mind it's hard to get packages included in the official
Debian
distribution, but should be easier with the new -make).
Since you used the word "a few months ago" to describe something
"outdated", I'd suspect currently GNUStep develoment is pretty hot.
Most desktop environment systems update at yearly or half-yearly basis
with only a few changes.
I'd try compile myself later. Thanks for the info!
