Hello,
I don't know if it is a misconfiguration from my side, but I keep getting
the 2.2.18-1 of the old graph-tool package. I ran apt-get update, added the
new gpg key and uninstalled the previous version of the package. But the
new python-graph-tool package cann't be found while the "older" is stuck at
that version.
I'm running Ubuntu and using the "precise" distribution.

Thanks in advance,
Giuseppe
