And what version was installed before this version? Common practise should be, but not always is, that within a major release backwards compatibility is granted and even the work-flow shouldn't change too much and the config should still work. So at least, if the major release does increase, read release notes, either of the package and especially from upstream. Most of the times, but not always, the major release upgraded software transforms old data and configs to new data and configs. The pro, you don't have to do it on your own, the con, you might not be able to downgrade the software and use the transformed data and config anymore. IOW, regarding Colin's reply ...

I disagree a little bit, you should send a request to upstream adn to the packager (Ubuntu packager or Mint packager), assumed you didn't miss to read release notes of the package and from upstream, or you only upgraded from one dot release to another. If you read the release notes for a major release upgrade and assumed nothing regarding this issue was mentioned, the it's the fault of either the package manager and upstream. If this issue was mentioned, by release notes for a major release upgrade, then complain. If this issue happened from one dot release to another, then complain, too.
