Apparently there is a newer one, but launchpad has even older version for Ubuntu 16.04.
So maybe it would be nice to update the docs and packages and place the package in some easily accessible repository.

Comment 2 Tomas Jelinek 2017-05-31 12:47:44 UTC
opened a request for update it in debian which should than be propagated to ubuntu: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=863806

closing this as upstream
