Sorry, I previously misunderstood the situation.

Here's what I got:

1.
alex@alex-karmic-testing:~$ checkbox-gtk --version
0.7.2

2.
alex@alex-karmic-testing:~$ sudo apt-get install checkbox
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

checkbox is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 525 not upgraded.

So, does it mean I have the latest version? No:

3.
alex@alex-karmic-testing:~$ sudo apt-get install checkbox-gtk
Reading package lists... Done

The following packages will be upgraded:
  checkbox-gtk
......
Setting up checkbox-gtk (0.8.1-0ubuntu1) ...

4. And now:
alex@alex-karmic-testing:~$ man checkbox-gtk
No manual entry for checkbox-gtk
See 'man 7 undocumented' for help when manual pages are not available.
alex@alex-karmic-testing:~$ apt-cache show checkbox | grep Version
Version: 0.8.1-0ubuntu1
Python-Version: current

So I guess there are the following issues:

1. man checkbox-gtk still doesn't work in latest version.
2. you can install "checkbox", "checkbox-cli" and "checkbox-gtk" separately, which is confusing in this specific case
3. and if we're already there, "man checkbox-cli" doesn't work either:

alex@alex-karmic-testing:~$ man checkbox-cli
No manual entry for checkbox-cli
See 'man 7 undocumented' for help when manual pages are not available.

alex@alex-karmic-testing:~$ checkbox-cli --version
0.7.2

I still can update checkbox-cli separately, but I will leave it like this for a moment, until the issue resolved.
