please update the Ubuntu package for Specto 0.3.1

[Jeff Fortin Tam]

Binary package hint: specto

The Ubuntu packages for Specto should be updated to the new 0.3.1 version; the 0.2.x series is very outdated and buggy, and does not behave well with notify-osd (introduced in Ubuntu 9.04).

I think it's not too late for Ubuntu 9.10 right?

[Bhavani Shankar (bhavi)]

this can be synced once it gets into debian or merged right?

[Chris Halse Rogers (raof)]

Right. I just need to find the time to update the Debian package, then
the inclination to find a sponsor.

Uploaded, thanks for your work.

The package is still wrongly patched with to its license, as reported in bug #390240.

Jean-François, this bug was about updating Specto to 0.3.1. Not about the license issue. This is discussed in bug #390240.
Please don't change bug statuses unjustified.

I'm assuming Specto isn't updated for Ubuntu 12.04; it is non-functional (you can't add a watch, and there's no indicator by the clock).

[Lonnie Lee Best (launchpad-startport)]

Now, it is 0.3.1 that is buggy, so here's a new bug for this thread:
