The current Ubuntu documentation/help page includes a disclaimer about the staleness of this package, so anyone looking there for help will be directed to install the latest from http://www.tug.org/texlive/
The documentation page at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LaTeX says: Note: As of October 2011 the texlive package that ships with Ubuntu (TeX Live 2009) is lagging more than two years behind the current TeX Live release (TeX Live 2011). If you don't have big space constraints and want the latest version of TeX Live, you can install it directly from the TeX Live website (this does not interfere with the packages in Ubuntu). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/712521 Title: [Needs packaging] TeXLive 2011 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/tex-live/+bug/712521/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
