Thanks.              The universe and multiverse parts of the Ubuntu repo isn't maintained       by the Ubuntu team, it is maintained by volunteers instead.       Most times, no updates will be released for a package in an Ubuntu       version if an important update is available upstream.       Ubuntu Pro now offers you those updates because business customers       requested such a service.              For private users, Ubuntu Pro is for free, but needs registration.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
