Best solution would still be to get 3.4.2 into official repo. This means getting it into the Debain repo first as Ubuntu takes his Gambas package from Debain upstream. See: http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gambas3.html All it takes is (I have been investigating this matter for a while): One (1) person who knows how to package Gambas 3.4.2 on Debian and willing to do this. As I understand it, you don't need to package for all architectures, because that is done automatically after you uploaded the package and a mentor picked it up. To get your package into Debian read this: http://mentors.debian.net/intro-maintainers I'm not a packager, although I do want to learn, else I would have packaged Gambas (I even tried but failed) and upload it. So, who can either: 1. Learn me how to package Gambas for Debian, so I can get it uploaded OR 2. Package Gambas for Debain and upload it him/herself This would eventually lead to a more recent Gambas version on both Debain, Ubuntu and all Debian/Ubuntu based distros. Wouldn't that be nice for distributing Gambas applications?
