Actually, OpenTTD 1.2.0 was only released last weekend, and I (Debian
maintainer) just uploaded it to Debian yesterday, so it's not so weird
that it's not in Ubunut yet :-)

Having said that, I guess this would be a good time to pull the package from 
Debian. I'm not sure about the procedure for this, but if someone does pull 
OpenTTD, take care to also pull:
 - grfcodec 6.0.0-1, which is needed for building openttd 1.2.0-1
 - openttd-opengfx 0.4.4-1, which is needed for some new features in openttd 
1.2.0-1
 - nml 0.2.3-1 (new package), which is needed to build opentd-opengfx

Pulling the other packages in the set (catcodec 1.0.5-1, openttd-openmsx
0.3.1-2 and openttd-opensfx 0.2.3-3) might be a good idea as well, but
there have been mostly minor (packaging) changes to them.

However, looking at the release schedule of 12.04
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule), I think it's
unlikely that this new OpenTTD version will be included (release is due
in 9 days), so it'll have to wait for 12.10. If I understand correctly,
after 12.04 is released, packages should be automatically synced by
Ubuntu again, so I don't think there's anything manual to do here.
