Enhanced Machine Controller 2.4.7 has been released. Debian packages are availble from the regular package servers. A source tarball is available at http://linuxcnc.org/emc2/dists/lucid/emc2.4/source/emc2_2.4.7.tar.gz
Due to a mistake during packaging, this version will still identify itself as version 2.4.6 in the splash screen and about dialog. To verify the version of that you have installed, open a terminal window and type: dpkg -l emc2 OR dpkg -l emc2-sim depending on whether you have installed the realtime or simulator-only version of the software. The output should say something like this: ii emc2 1:2.4.7 PC based motion controller for real-time Lin Because of a problem with the virtual machine used to build the 64-bit hardy (ubuntu 8.04) packages, version 2.4.7 is unavailable for that system at this time. All packages for lucid are available, as are packages for 32-bit hardy.
