I definitely support this update request, although I am not really competent wrt Ubuntu policies.
LyX 2.0.8.1 is the final 2.0.x release, which is able to read files produced by the newer 2.1.x versions. In these stables series, we try very hard to avoid dangerous changes. Stables updates are supposed to be "no risk" releases, although of course life is never as simple as that! Since 2.0.8.1 is the last 2.0 version, we have been particularly careful. In particular, all 2.0.x version create the same lyx file format. The only really new code is the one that reads 2.1.x files. This one probably still contains bugs, but IMO this release is better/safer than all previous 2.0.x releases. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1303688 Title: SRU bug-fix microrelease 2.0.8.1 in Trusty To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lyx/+bug/1303688/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
