I haven't updated the ppa in a while. There is something wrong with the current packaging scripts and I don't have a lot of time to debug it. If anyone wants to help please let me know. On 01/28/2014 02:52 AM, Todd O'Bryan wrote: > I use the Racket ppa. Hopefully, the new version will appear the

I use the Racket ppa. Hopefully, the new version will appear there shortly. To use: $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:plt/racket $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install racket You have to wait a bit for the maintainer to put together the .deb file, but I think it's worth it. Todd On Tue, Jan 2

Great new version! I noticed that there is only a build for ubuntu platform. Will at least one of the other (older distribution) ones come back? Also the builds for ubuntu have different versions for 32 and 64 bit. 32bit is fine with the 12.04 LTS, which is the newest LTS. But all the 64bit

We hope to release 6.0 in a short amount of time if 5.92 goes okay. We wanted time for a slightly wider circle to try things out before the big 6-oh. Robby On Sat, Jan 25, 2014 at 9:52 PM, Juan Francisco Cantero Hurtado < i...@juanfra.info> wrote: > Thanks for the work on the new version :D > >

Thanks for the work on the new version :D I'm using the "builtpkgs" tarball. Everything works OK. The only problem is PLT_SETUP_OPTIONS="-j 2" breaks the "make install" step. Just a question. Why "5.92"? Why not "6"?. On 01/25/14 18:55, Ryan Culpepper wrote: Racket 5.92 has a new package sys

We don't plan to improve or otherwise change any of the planet packages, but we do plan to maintain backwards compatibility so that future versions of racket will continue to run that code as well as it has been doing. Robby On Sat, Jan 25, 2014 at 12:36 PM, Erich Rast wrote: > Fantastic! Con

Fantastic! Congratulations! One more question about the new package system: Is there a roadmap about Planet support, i.e. when will existing Planet packages cease to work? "foreseeable future" is a bit vague. I'm developing very slowly due to lack of spare-time and have a mid-size application wi
