I didn't notice dates in the changelog either, so I hopped over to their news
section <http://pvpgn.berlios.de/index.php>. Although you were right; I was
hasty in calculating the package age--I did so based off of the 1.8.2
release date. The actual application version (1.8.1)  was released in August
2007, making this around 11 months old. I must have misread the date the
first time and said 22 months old. My mistake. In any case, versions newer
than 1.8.1 have been out for many months now, and that's where the package
is.

Thank you for the very speedy response, by the way. I didn't expect to get a
reply within just a few hours!

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: pvpgn
  
  There are no up-to-date packages for PvPGN (current version 1.8.3 as of
  July 18th) in Ubuntu (all versions). That makes what this package lists
- as "latest release" (1.8.1-1.1)  22 months old.
+ as "latest release" (1.8.1-1.1)  10 months old. Not counting the patches
+ added by the Ubuntu developers, the version of the actual software is
+ just under one year old (released 1.8.1 was released August 17th 2007).
