I don't know if 2.9 is actually in any repository yet. I did a workaround for my 12.04 machine. I downloaded the current jar file: http://sourceforge.net/projects/jabref/files/jabref/2.9.2/ -changed the right to "executable file" --> now you can use it. --> for desktop integration i did the following:
- created a *.desktop file in folder usr/share/applications - linked the desktop file to a picture of jabref. My jabref.desktop file looks like this: ________________ [Desktop Entry] Name=JabRef Comment=Bibliography Manager GenericName=JabRef Exec=java -jar /home/fw/JabRef-2.9b.jar Terminal=false X-MultipleArgs=false Type=Application Icon=/home/fw/Bilder/jabref.jpeg Categories=Office; StartupNotify=true Name[de_DE]=JabRef ____________________ On 13 February 2013 08:28, Nicholas Hamilton <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Felix, > > Thanks, indeed my version is 2.7.x, which is the only version I could find > for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. > > Is there a package available for 2.9? > > Cheers > > > On 13/02/13 18:17, Felix Wilke wrote: >> >> Hello Nicholas >> >> Thanks to JabRef this really usefull feature already exists.
