an update to a new version can only be done via backports. do people often need 2.32 and 2.4 at the same time? that would require renaming the unison package to add a version and make it coinstallable a simple backport of unison would be simpler but people would have to deinstall and reinstall to change version
see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports use the requestbackport script from ubuntu-dev tools to request one. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Debian OCaml Maintainers, which is subscribed to unison in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/857824 Title: Wishlist: Update to Unison 2.40.63 Status in “unison” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Wishlist: Update to Unison 2.40.63, since this is the latest stable version. Also, Unison 2.4 is the currently version most easily installed on on FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and Microsoft Windows (and Unison is picky about version numbers), so it would be easier to set up a multi-OS Union sync system with Unison 2.4.
