The current unetbootin version from the developer's PPA is 613-1 uploaded 2015-07-20

I have tested and it works for me, also between the newest versions of Ubuntu.

See the following list of versions of unetbootin in the Ubuntu universe repo

Ubuntu-version Unetbootin-version
__________________________________________________________________________________________

12.04.5 LTS 565-3 probably uploaded 2012
14.04.2 LTS 585-2 probably uploaded 2013
14.04.3 LTS 585-2 probably uploaded 2013
15.04 608-1 probably uploaded before the 'gfxboot.c32: not a COM32R image' bugfix
15.10 608-1 probably uploaded before the 'gfxboot.c32: not a COM32R image' bugfix

This will make users who do not understand to add the developer's PPA use an old version, which is likely to suffer from some bugs, for example the 'gfxboot.c32: not a COM32R image' bug.

Please update unetbootin in the repos :-)
