One reason is that people can finish their campaigns that they started in 1.8 before they do the upgrade to 1.10 - but still can upgrade their ubuntu system without troubles. Also, the 1.8 stable tree is still supported upstream, some people are still playing it, and it is not possible to play multiplayer games with different stable versions, so having only 1.10 in precise would force others to upgrade too, to continue to be able to play with you.
Personally, I am fine with either: precise will be a LTS release, and 1.8 will probably be phased out upstream before precise reaches end of life. I'm fine with whatever gets decided here. I am uncertain myself, otherwise I would have done the decision already. :) So long, Rhonda -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Debian/Ubuntu Games Team, which is subscribed to wesnoth-1.8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/982534 Title: Please remove wesnoth-1.8 from precise Status in “wesnoth-1.8” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: wesnoth-1.8 is the old stable version of Wesnoth. It's obsolete because wesnoth-1.10 is the latest stable version and has been synced to precise from Debian.
