the 6.4.2 packages haven't been uploaded there yet,
  https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugis/+archive/ubuntugis-unstable?field.series_filter=oneiric


we are working on new packaging rules now in DebianGIS, almost finished,
stay tuned...

(current status: need to figure out how to cleanly build python bytecode
.pyc in the postinst script, and remove it again in the prerm script)


thank you for your patience,
