In this case, I was clearly one of the "some users" that could misunderstand the exact meaning of this release... Thank you for the clarification !

Hi Jerome,

thanks for the note!

The release means is creating a tarball and it appears on GitHub and Launchpad
pages for the download. So it is "installing from the source" history.

Debian is getting new versions usually after several days if it is not
in a freeze phase (which is not the case for the moment). Ubuntu
gets a newer Yade version in its "not-released version" usually and
releases it according to their schedule.

Yadedaily is updating frequently and gets newer versions withing the
several days.

For those, who is using trunk (github) self-compiled version and updates
it with "git pull", stable releases is just a new tag in "git tag" command.

Best regards

Anton

> Since we have now 3 ways installing Yade (source code, yade-daily and stable prepackaged softwares in Debian distributions, I hope I do not miss anything...) , I thought it might be confusing for some users to get whether / how they are affected by such release. I had myself to go to https://yade-dem.org/doc/installation.html to figure out it is about the stable prepackaged softwares (I guess...)...
