Debian has a couple of bug reports open, asking for a newer version to
be packaged - you can view them at <http://bugs.debian.org/afterstep>.=20
So far I don't think any of them have followups from the maintainer,
tho. In fact, I don't see any recent activity at all on the BTS. I
think there was something on one of the mailing lists recently... I'll
see if I can dig it up.
Here it is (not quite as recent as I thought):
http://www.debian.org/Lists-Archives/debian-devel-0003/msg00237.html
http://www.debian.org/Lists-Archives/debian-devel-0003/msg00247.html
http://www.debian.org/Lists-Archives/debian-devel-0003/msg00248.html
Personally, I'd love to see 1.8.x packaged. I'll see if I can get in
touch with the maintainer... if he's still around he might be willing
to accept a NMU (non-maintainer upload). If he's dropped off the face
of the earth, of course we'll want to get someone else.
