Check the latest release, though I doubt 1.6 is available for Dapper. If you are brave enough, download the tarball and build it. Or try it on Fiesty or Gutsy. I am assuming one of those two will have 1.6.x. Actually 1.6.2 should be available for Fiesty and 1.6.3 is available for Gutsy. Try those if you can, check if you can reproduce the issue and if so submit a bug report ... oh wait ... it should not have bugs right?
I don't have Gutsy or Fiesty loaded.
It should not have any bugs.
This is the most hilarious statement ever! What is this? Utopia? Please do show me a software ( free or non-free ) without any bugs. I wonder why they ever create bugzilla or trac or any bug tracking software. And btw, unknown bugs *are* bugs.
It is not hilarious when M$ Office multi-user license will be procured, in the new machines that will be supplied, due to the critical nature of the work.
And you think microsoft products are bug free? there are not Tuesday patch application marathons? I think that the mismatch between your expectations and reality might indeed be the cause of merriment in many.
I don't expect buggy packages to be available on repos even after newer versions are out.
*Shrug*. Again, your expectations do not seem to match reality as it exists. Packages on repos are often unchanged, unless there is a security bug, in which case, _other_, newer packages are added to the security site.
Package updates happen when people move to do the work. I have often found that sometimes the person doing the work needs to be oneself; and then feeding back the work to the community makes it all go around.
BTW, most M$ users who use non-licensed copies, are using software copies that are quite some years old, they have no access to updates, yet they hardly find any problems or bugs in their software and are happily using them.
Err, I guess then there is no point for them to move to anything else, is there?. All these stories I read about botnets now containing several millions of machines must be all irrelevant, somehow.
