Is the same for Ubuntu :-( - At least if I haven't missed anything.

Maybe we could build a generic statically linked binary (for i386 at least)
, for those distributions which nobody does up-to-date builds for?

If there is interest in this, I could try to build such a package for
1.6.3 in the next few days. Dunno how hard it is to build a version
that runs on the majority of the distributions out there though..
