I edited the description following
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates --- could someone with a
bit more time than myself nominate it with the StableReleaseUpdate team?
Instructions in the wiki link above.


** Description changed:

+ 
  With 13.04.2-2 (at the moment in proposed repos), wxmaxima does not do
  something with some special inputs like Ctrl-C Ctrl-V [ ] and maybe some
  other ones I did not try... Maybe the upgrading to libwx 3.0.0 by this
  version of wxmaxima causes that ?
+ 
+ [impact]
  
  It is a critical bug against wxmaxima's new proposed version since
  brackets (e.g.) are essential to maxima language.
  
  Previous version does work fine. (FYI the new one allows to copy/paste
  with mouse middle button : this is definitely great, but...)
+ 
+ wxmaxima in Utopic (13.04.2-4) fixes the problem, and simply installing 
+ 
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/w/wxmaxima/wxmaxima_13.04.2-4_amd64.deb 
on top of current Trusty version fixes it too. 
+ 
+ [test case]
+ 
+ Open wxmaxima on a computer with a keyboard without direct [ or ] keys,
+ like Spanish keyboard.
+ 
+ Type : a[0]
+ 
+ Expected result: a[0]
+ 
+ Result: a0
+ 
+ --- brackets are not read by wxmaxima.
+ 
+ [Regression potential]
+ 
+ Very low.
+ 
+ 1. It works in Utopic.
+ 2. As it is, wxmaxima is completely useless unless you have a US keyboard.
