Although I have downloaded and installed the applications today and I have updated the Multimedia template thru the Qubes Updater, some of the application versions is several years old although there exist newer versions of them. Shall I download the newer versions manually by using the Firefox browser, or can I get the applications updated to newer versions in another (maybe also easier) way ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
