Old versio of proftpd in 7.10?

[ldt0]

Why are there no official Ubuntu updates to proftpd? If I'm not mistaken, the default version of proftpd in Ubuntu 7.10 is 1.3.0. And afaik this version has a number of security issues. Perhaps I am missing something, Thanks for any advice.

AFAIK any important upstream security fixes are patched against the current version in Gutsy.

See http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/universe/p/proftpd-dfsg/proftpd-dfsg_1.3.0-24ubuntu1/changelog
