Hello Lukasz Zemczak,
I'm one of the subscribers to the bug report. Thank you
for the updated package,
but I'm a newbie to ubuntu and I don't know how to install a tar.xz
package. I found steps involving
make install commands, however I coudn't find a config file or INSTALL
file. I would appreciate it
if you could spare some time to explain how to install the package.
Regards
Rohith
