BaseX distribution in Debian #2236
Comments
Hi @dirkk, I'm pleased to read from you and best wishes in return :-) As chance would have it, just three days ago I installed Ubuntu as well. Now I have an intrinsic and extrinsic motivation to update the BaseX Debian/Ubuntu package. Current situationThe current debian packaging is available in Debian's gitlab infrastructure and @tmancill is our Debian mentor. This is all very nice and fine.

Description of the Problem
Hello my dear friends from the other side of the lake!
Given that I have a new company laptop with a shiny Ubuntu I obviously needed BaseX to solve all my problems™. So I looked for the easiest way to install and BaseX is even in the official repos (couldn't remember that)! Great. Unfortunately, I noticed currently only version 9.0.1 is release there, which I guess is quite outdated when the latest version is 10.6.
It would be nice if a more recent version would be available

But to be honest, subscribing to the list and then getting all these mails where I am not really interested, seemed cumbersome: I think it would be a good idea to also allow/encourage bug reports or questions to be submitted in GitHub, as it is just a platform where developers already are.
Expected Behavior

Steps to Reproduce the Behavior

sudo apt-get install basex
on Ubuntu or any other Debian.Do you have an idea how to solve the issue?
Make Alex upload to the Debian repository, I guess :)
