Thanks Joshua. I guess the main question us (l)users :) are asking is how and when do official releases of inkscape get into the major Linux repos? I don't code OSS so I have no idea. Is it a volunteer responsibility of a member of the OSS team? Is it a thing that a Debian/Ubuntu "official" has to do - come asking for a release? Is it because they take a certain amount of time to check the release first?
See what I mean? It's confusing.
