Comment 5 for bug 1224588

1.6 is in Debian experimental and Vivid (see bug 1305701). Yay!

LTS releases are stable, they will see only targeted patches. 1.3 is the version in Trusty and that will most likely not change. If you experience problems, report them here as being specific to trusty. My experience is that upstream was VERY helpful in getting targetted fixes backported. If that doesn't work for you, use pinta from one of the PPAs, mine included.

The problem as originally reported has been dealt with so I will close this ticket as fix released.
