Public bug reported: Hi,
I'm new to launchpad/public ubuntu packaging, so if I appear to have made any incorrect assumptions, I apologise in advance, and would appreciate being corrected. As suggested here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chuck/+question/295113 I'm opening a version update request for the chuck package. See related Debian package update request here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=775341 We're several version numbers behind upstream across all distros repositories, and because of that we're missing out on a variety of new features and critical bugfixes. The changelog is available here: http://chuck.stanford.edu/release/VERSIONS, relevant highlights from 1.2.0.8 (current packaged version) to 1.3.5.2 (current upstream version) include: * The UAnae feature, as well as many UAnae * New primitive data types * Dynamic arrays * Many fixes and additions to the standard library * Support for file IO * Support for serial IO * Improved support for OSC * Midi file parsing support * Greatly improved string manipulation functions * Support for Plugins (ChuGins) * 64 bit support * PulseAudio support * Many other critical bugfixes and improvements I realise this isn't likely to be a widely used package, but for the few who do use it, it'd be really very nice if it were up to date. Unfortunately the changelog doesn't contain release dates, but the publications related to UAnae were in 2007: http://smirk.cs.princeton.edu/WangFiebrinkCook_ICMC2007.pdf Would this upgrade be dependent on resolving the equivalent Debian package request 775341? Looking forward to hearing back, Best regards, Hugh Rawlinson ** Affects: chuck (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1591145 Title: Package version update request To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chuck/+bug/1591145/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
