Sorry for the lull in producing Debian and Ubuntu packages. Part of the problem is that I'm now building them on chroots on an external USB drive, which tends to overheat with all the disk activity (wish I'd bought an enclosure with a fan in hindsight). I've now uploaded packages of 1.0.10 to Debian unstable. We're going to try providing backports via the semi-Debian-official backports.org archive. This will mean a two week (or possibly more sometimes) lag as their rules require the package to have migrated to testing before it can be backported, but it usually took me at least a few days to build them myself so hopefully that won't actually be so different. This will also mean that binary packages should be available for more architectures - in addition to x86-64 and x86, they have buildds for arm, armel, amd64, ppc, alpha, and possibly also mips and sparc in future. Ubuntu now provide signed Personal Package Archives (PPAs) on launchpad so I've created a xapian-backports team with its own PPA, and uploaded backported packages of 1.0.10. As a bonus, this builds for the lpia architecture as well as the x86-64 and x86 I've previously been able to offer. You can find the packages and instructions for use here: https://launchpad.net/~xapian-backports/+archive/ppa Feedback on all this is very welcome. I've not updated the download page yet - I'd like to get any problems shaken out by mailing list readers rather than casual visitors, as I think I'm more likely to hear about them that way! Cheers, Olly
