the newest release is in edgy (6.10) and is compiled with all the norms + --enable-tag-writing --enable-track-transfer and --enable-ipod-writing i might attempt a backport once i get a chance (maybe monday at work?) otherwise just file a backports request, or compile it. most of the build deps, if not all should be easy to deal with.
FYI, there is a (stalled?) request for the backport to Ubuntu Dapper (6.06) is here:
https://launchpad.net/products/dapper-backports/+bug/50477 There is also this thread about building your own package: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=200762Personally, I've just downloaded rb 0.9.5 source and built it myself on the 64bit Ubuntu Dapper and apart from a seemingly never ending list of dependencies, that seems to have gone smoothly.
./configure[see what its complaining about missing, install it and the *-dev package, repeat]
make make check sudo make installThis replaces rb 0.9.3 which would regularly tie up one core at 100% CPU usage... if the problem persists on 0.9.5 then I'll file a bug.
