[Bug 234681] Re: Cannot open msc files

[Toby Smithe]

This is unlikely to ever be fixed in Hardy proper. Whilst Canonical
provides guaranteed support for those packages that are in the main
repository for the full lifetime of the LTS release, packages in the
universe repository are only supported on a voluntary basis. If you can
provide a patch to mscore 0.9.1 that fixes this bug, I will happily have
it sponsored, if not, please don't be aggressive.

A far better solution for you (and for my scarce free time) would be to
use the latest stable release, 0.9.5, which you can install from my PPA
at https://launchpad.net/~mscore-ubuntu/+archive/mscore-stable - follow
the instructions at that address to install the repository. If you want
more recent packages, you can use the unstable prereleases at
https://launchpad.net/~mscore-ubuntu/+archive/ppa but be warned, as
these are much more likely to have bugs. The packages are also currently
a little out of date- due to the complex nature of the software, I
cannot blindly track upstream version changes. Updates take time to
check over and validate, but I hope to be able to provide the recently
released beta version of 0.9.6 soon.

LKRaider, I'm sorry that I never got back to you. I'm sure you can
appreciate why, but I admit that that was far from desirable. If you
wish, please use the updated packages described above.
