Description
I have VB 4.0 installed. Now 4.1 is available, so when I run my installed version, a dialog appear informing me that a new version is available with a link to the package to download.
However, the link points to the package for ubuntu Maverick (is it 10.10?), while I am on Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric).
Maybe this happens because I had installed VB on 10.10 and have later upgraded to 11.10, but this possibility should be taken into account.

See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Sorry but GUI has no information about the distribution it runs on. Instead it checks for the installed package. I assume that you were still running the Maverick package on your Oneiric host, therefore the GUI suggested to download the Maverick package again. You should add the Ubuntu repository to /etc/sources.list, see Linux_Downloads.
