Testing Ubuntu 18.04 (alpha release) and noticed repository Guacamole is still v0.9.9

Testing Ubuntu 18.04 (alpha release) and noticed repository Guacamole is
still v0.9.9

The upcoming Long Term Support (LTS) version of Ubuntu (18.04) has been
getting a huge amount of press & anticipation because of the switch to Gnome
from Unity primarily.

Today I checked the 18.04 repositories and they still have only Guacamole
v0.9.9.

Any chance of that getting upgraded to the latest from
Apache-Guacamole-Incubator?

thanks

Brian

Hi Brian,

The packages for Apache Guacamole for Ubuntu, Debian, and other
distributions are actually maintained by downstream package maintainers,
not the upstream project. For Debian, I believe that would be the "Debian
Remote Maintainers":

https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=pkg-remote-team%40lists.alioth.debian.org

I'm not sure if Ubuntu maintains these packages distinctly or whether they
just slurp up the packages from Debian at some point, but that's probably
worth a check, too.

PS: As you mention "Incubator", I'd like to point out that we actually
graduated from the Apache Incubator last November, so it's just Apache
Guacamole now. :)
