FW: [hatari-devel] Hatari in Ubuntu's repository out-of-date

[Chris Wilson]

Hi Cyprian,

The package in the Ubuntu Software Centre is a mirror of the one currently
available in Debian. The best way to update the package in Ubuntu is to
update it in Debian, and you can do that byu filing a bug report against
the Debian package, which this wiki
page<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debian/Bugs>will tell you how to do.

Once the Debian package has been updated, come back to Launchpad and submit
a bug report comtaining a sync request, which this
page<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SyncRequestProcess>will help you with.

Hope that helps you out,
Chris
