 why is calamares so far behind the latest releases?
 I haven't updated the packaging. Unfortunately I have not done much Ubuntu/Lubuntu stuff lately. The real life stuff seems to keep getting in the way. That being said you really need to watch upstream like a hawk. Many of those releases happened in a short amount of time. The Arch folks find the bugs and a new release comes a few days after.
