GNUmed Ubuntu packages updated

I have finally gotten around to providing uptodate Ubuntu packages for Ubuntu Hardy. It has long been known that is virtually impossible to get updates into the default Ubuntu package archives.

That has led to the situation that Ubuntu Hardy carries outdated packages. They have recently started to provide so called personal package archives or PPA.

The GNUmed team in launchpad has such an PPA and provides uptodate GNUmed versions.

You can visit the team's pages at https://launchpad.net/~gnumed/+archive. Adding the team's repository will let you install GNUmed updates through Ubuntu's default software installation tools.

apt sources.list entries

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/gnumed/ubuntu hardy main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/gnumed/ubuntu hardy main
