How do I download always the latest version of the programs when I use apt-get install [program]?

Patterson

I tried to install the Eclipse IDE and arduino this way:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install arduino
sudo apt-get install eclipse

But come the version Eclipse 3.8 and the Arduino IDE 1.0.3 and not the latest versions. Would specify which version of the program when I use apt-get install?

Your command to apt-get update will refresh the package list with the latest available in the Ubuntu distro that you are using (I'm assuming your on 13.04 or 12.04.3 right?). If your are curious about what version apt-get will install, use the following:

sudo apt-cache show arduino

or;

sudo apt-cache show eclipse

It will produce the following output:

Package: eclipse Priority: optional Section: universe/devel Installed-Size: 121 Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers Original-Maintainer: Debian Orbital Alignment Team Architecture: all Version: 3.8.1-1ubuntu1 Depends: eclipse-jdt (>= 3.8.1-1ubuntu1), eclipse-pde (>= 3.8.1-1ubuntu1) Filename: pool/universe/e/eclipse/eclipse_3.8.1-1ubuntu1_all.deb ...

Trust this helps!
