Another update: The latest tarball release of JasPer (on the JasPer web site) is now version 2.0.10: http://www.ece.uvic.ca/~frodo/jasper/software/jasper-2.0.10.tar.gz
Presuming that Ubuntu cares at all about security, there are a massive number of security and other bug fixes that have been applied to JasPer between the 1.900.1 version currently used in Ubuntu and the 2.0.10 version. To the best of my knowledge, Ubuntu is the only major Linux distribution that insists on continuing to use the old obsolete 1.900.1 version of JasPer. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1639737 Title: New Version of JasPer JPEG2000 Software Available To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jasper/+bug/1639737/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
