Re: [Trisquel-users] Software installation for Gnubies

[rhutter]

I have a basic question in this matter, too: Why does it sometimes take sooo  
long to update software packages in the repo?
My example is the email client Claws. In the repo there is still version  
3.9.3, and it even has ubuntu in its name, which apparently means it is a  
package taken from Ubuntu. But already one year ago Claws 3.11 was made ready  
for Ubuntu - at least in this PPA:  
https://launchpad.net/~claws-mail/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
And a few days ago Claws 3.13 was released.
Why are we still limited to such an old version?
