Description of the Problem

Hello my dear friends from the other side of the lake!

Given that I have a new company laptop with a shiny Ubuntu I obviously needed BaseX to solve all my problems™. So I looked for the easiest way to install and BaseX is even in the official repos (couldn't remember that)! Great. Unfortunately, I noticed currently only version 9.0.1 is release there, which I guess is quite outdated when the latest version is 10.6.

It would be nice if a more recent version would be available

Also, one side not which has nothing to do with the ticket: Maybe you want to change how tickets can be reported. I am aware I should have submitted this to the mailing list. But to be honest, subscribing to the list and then getting all these mails where I am not really interested, seemed cumbersome: I think it would be a good idea to also allow/encourage bug reports or questions to be submitted in GitHub, as it is just a platform where developers already are.

Expected Behavior

Expect to get the latest features

Steps to Reproduce the Behavior

Run sudo apt-get install basex on Ubuntu or any other Debian.

Do you have an idea how to solve the issue?

Make Alex upload to the Debian repository, I guess :)

What is your configuration?
