I don't supposed you actually bothered to read the changelog or anything,
right?  After all, you're an unstable user, so why would you want to know
anything about changes to the package?

Of course, the several paper-handling bugs so far reported against it to
the BTS aren't at all relevant either.

<sigh>

       +- gee, might be relevant?

Take my comments however you like... the fact that people think they need
to be running unstable and can't do trivial things to find out what's up
with packages will always bug me.

Yes, *I* use it, and so I pay attention to it.  May I suggest you install
apt-listchanges so that you, as well, can pay attention to it?
