This release of luatex for Debian ships an improved texdoc written in texlua by Frank Küster. Please report any strange things to debian-tex-maint@lists.debian.org
Excuse my ignorance, but is it safe to use these sources for ubuntu gusty as well?
Safe for sure, but you have to check whether it compiles. It depends on the version of libpoppler present in Ubuntu Gutsy.
For libpoppler 0.4.X (X <= 8) take the etch variant For libpoppler 0.4.9 or 0.5.X you have to unpack the source package, change the debian/patches/series file to list the libpoppler-0.5 patch and comment the libpoppler-0.4 and -0.6 For libpoppler 0.6.X take the sid variant (available at the same location as the etch variant but with terminal luatex-sid instead of luatex)
Sorry for being of not so much help, but I don't have a gutsy around and I never could find out which versions of Ubuntu ship which versions of libraries.
Ubuntu gusty ships with libpoppler 0.6.2.1. However, I do not get any suggested updates because I am using amd64 architecture, and I see that you do not have amd64 packages on your website. I will wait for the new packages to trickle through to ubuntu repositories. Aditya
