Rob, Thomas is an upstream kmymoney2 developer. I forwarded the bug report upstream as it wasn't a specific Debian issue per se, but rather an upstream issue, Thomas, advised that upstream aren't maintaining 0.6.4 anymore. > Is this a Debian policy? As far as Debian goes, the stable branch is only maintained for security updates, new versions of packages are not submitted. As this is not a security issue it won't be fixed for sarge. > Short of using testing/unstable or going to 34rd parties, just how would > one "upgrade to 0.8.2" when it's not even available in Sarge? There are a couple of options available. You could always backport the package from sid to work in a sarge environment. http://www.backports.org maybe able to assist here. Or you could add a sid deb-src line to your apt/sources.list and then do something like: # apt-get build-dep kmymoney2 # apt-get -b source kmymoney2 Or alternatively you could wait until the next stable release of Debian which should contain the updated version of kmymoney2.
