[Ubuntu] QGIS: unsupported SAGA version after last update -- ubuntugis-unstable channel

[Domenico Mozzanica]

Dear Sebastiaan,
thank for your explanation. I'll contact the SAGA team for this problem.

I hope they will fix it, as using SAGA by a plugin in QSIG it's powerfull
and very convenient.

Kind Regards,
Domenico Mozzanica
