Re: Nim on Ubuntu - only old version?

[geo555]

And I uninstalled the 0.12 and built the 0.17.2 from the sources. It went well 
and as described, so many kudos to that (although it gets a bit strange in 
directory c_code, but ok, it works in the end). But that's not what I asked, 
sorry. The question was if apt-get install nim was going to install the modern 
version on Ubuntu or that way of distribution was totally broken and 
unsupported.
