Update the package version

Asked by peterLee

I notice that the composer package version is under the Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS (Xenial).

And it seems that the version is too old to be available for using the command: self-update.

Please upgrade the package version so that it can be update the version itself.

Thanks.

You can create a bug report to request an upgrade of the version in Xenial. It helps if you can list some important improvements or bug fixes in the newer version.

As a quick workaround you could try downloading the composer version for yakkety or zesty and manually installing it on your xenial system. This might work well unless there are dependencies that cannot be met.

Can you help with this problem?
