Update less to v1.3.0

Asked by Andrey Popelo

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is a right place to ask, but it would be great to update this package with the latest version of less.js (1.3.0 as for now).

Thanks,
Andrey

I suggest you report a bug, if there are significat security fixes and / or feature additions it will be added sooner.

As you can see from http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/less.js the version 1.3.0 will be delivered with the next ubuntu release (12.10) which is due in autumn.

You cannot expect to see an update for the current release, because such updates are done only under specific circumstances - see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates

There is still the possibility that you find a PPA of a person who built an 1.3.0 version for your current release.

And of course you can try to compile a 1.3.0 version yourself.

(For some packages it is even possible to download and install the version for a higher release on a lower release - This might work well, but such attempt can also miserably fail rendering you system completely unusable - Do at your own risk.)
