Thanks Gerfried. If the new version isn't automatically synced from
Debian in the next few days, I will file a sync request to get all the
changes in for Ubuntu Karmic.

nexuiz:

  Candidate: 2.4-1

When you start Nexuiz (freshly installed via Ubuntu repositories in this case), it seems to check for an update and continues to nag the user with a yellow rectangle which says something like "Upgrade to Nexuiz 2.4.2 now!". While this probably is a good thing for online gaming compatibility etc., it should probably be disabled like in Firefox or Warsow.
