Hi Grégoire,

> Will it be possible in a while to get the new version on Synaptic?

Ubuntu's package manager?  http://packages.ubuntu.com/utopic/groff says
14.10's is currently 1.22.2-8 and that they take Debian's package,
maintained by Colin Watson (who's on this list).  That version is what's
in Debian's `testing', https://packages.debian.org/jessie/groff
Debian's `unstable' has 1.22.3-1!  https://packages.debian.org/sid/groff
Thanks Colin.  :-)

But I don't think Ubuntu will update the normal groff package until
15.04, and that's when Debian's 1.22.3 might arrive there.  Ah, Colin's
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/groff has 1.22.3-1 down for 15.04.
Whether you can find a PPA containing 1.22.3 that's compatible with
whatever version you're running, I don't know.

Cheers, Ralph.
