[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 376248] Re: Ubuntu 9.04 has an obsolete version of teeworlds

The current version is now 0.5.2. It would be nice to update the game
package for Lucid !

Status in “teeworlds” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
The current version of Teeworlds is 0.5.1 http://teeworlds.com/?page=news&id=3242
But Ubuntu ships Teeworlds 0.4.3 in its repositories, which is obsolete (all servers are currently running version 0.5.x which is not compatible with older version), making Teeworld's installation from Ubuntu's repository TOTALLY useless.

It has been a long time since the 0.5's release (many time before the Ubuntu 9.04 release…), and no critical bug has been reported. Moreover: a bug-fix release has been release, making the 0.5.1 a very stable version.

Please update the Teeworlds version in the Ubuntu repository, since the old one makes no point anymore.
