Bug Description

The version uploaded in saucy is very old; 575, which was released in April 2012. The latest version should be uploaded to Debian sid/unstable and then to Ubuntu.

The development seems very active: http://sourceforge.net/projects/unetbootin/files/UNetbootin/

There is a PPA set up by the developer: http://launchpad.net/~gezakovacs/+archive/ppa

Last activity of unetbootin in Debian was on 2012-06-05 http://packages.qa.debian.org/u/unetbootin.html. Maybe the maintainer is no longer interested in the package?

That's possible. I'll contact the developer and the MIA team to see what's happening

Btw, I'm the upstream developer (and maintain that PPA you linked to). Keep me updated on the MIA-debian-developer situation, if needed I'd be perfectly happy to take over maintenance in debian... (I used to maintain the CoffeeScript packaging, ie http://<email address hidden> , so I'm familiar with the Debian development process).

Geza, I suggest you directly contact the current Debian maintainer for your software and discuss with them the possibility to co-maintain or take over maintainer-ship of the package. http://packages.qa.debian.org/u/unetbootin.html
