[Trisquel-users] Outdated Trisquel Packages

[dev . deckardcain]

Hello;

This may be a little noobish (most likely if you ask me), though I've reached  
a bit of an impass recently which I would like to help solve, and that is  
that the Trisquel Repositories are rather out dated. I know how to download a  
program, compile and package it for a specific architecture, though I'm not  
too sure how to make my own package repository or send an update to the  
Trisquel maintainers so that I can see this update across all users. If  
anyone could help me out in either redirecting me to someone who I can send  
these package updates to, or send me a link to a tutorial or material  
regarding creating your own package repo, or even tell me how to do so, then  
I would love to get on upgrading the packages for the programs that I use  
regularily which I'd like upgraded, or upgrade them all.

I'm rather new to using GNU+Linux as well as the Trisquel Distribution,  
though would love to help out in any way that I can. Thank you for reading  
this and thanks in advance to those who have replied.
