For newer versions of packages you can: 1. Read the security advisories (in this case), which should point to the development books (these normally get created after the books have been updated) 2. Look at the development books 3. For packages where we know about a newer version but have not yet updated the books, look at open tickets in the wiki (select LFS or BLFS, then View Tickets). And then either try it out on a test machine (there might be altered dependencies or other issues) or wait until we have updated the books. ĸen -- On average, the Panda feeds for 15 hours a day.
