[Mantas Kriaučiūnas]

Public bug reported:

New upstream releases (0.7.1 and 0.7.2) of SuperTuxKart are available since July 2010 (0.7.1 since April), please update Ubuntu packages to 0.7.2
I've packaged latest version of STK (0.7.2), see official Baltix GNU/Linux and SuperTuxKart team repositories ppa:baltix-members and ppa:stk/dev :
https://launchpad.net/~stk/+archive/dev and https://launchpad.net/~stk/+archive/daily

There are lots of bugfixes, performance improvements and nice features
comparing to old 0.7 version, which is packaged in Ubuntu 11.10
(Oneiric), but new SuperTuxkart needs newer Irrlicht libraries (1.8
prerelease, already packaged in Baltix and STK repositories above):
