Thanks Tommy, The build of 3.2 for 16.04 was simple enough a couple of days ago. (partly because I’d built before on that vm so most everything was already there dependency-wise) The updated instructions certainly are helpful, but I did have to read and re-read them several times as the

Thanks for the run-down. So simply a case of Universe not pulling an update from Sid yet then? (or will that never happen and each release’s Universe is always tied to Testing? and then Stable, etc.) I know there is a separate backports repository as well. Perhaps that’s a better solution?
