Comment 24 for bug 239575

Yes, in the end, I do think it would be best to wait on packaging Zotero for Ubuntu.

Perhaps it's worth noting that Zotero is not at all unstable from a user's point of view, or at least, it's not for me. I've been using it fairly extensively for over a year now and had no real problems (i.e., data loss, drastic malfunction).

However, Zotero is somewhat unstable from a packager's point of view, just because there are still a lot of releases at present, too many for backports. I think it would be best to wait and see what the development roadmap looks like after the 1.5 release, which is currently in public beta testing.
