Sorry for the ignorance here, but how would I go about updating my Publican 2.7 installation to version 2.8 on my Fedora 15 client? I see the link to the source tarball, but I am not sure how to upgrade.

Thanks,
Rob

>Hi all:

>Just a quick note on the very low-key release of Publican 2.8.
>
>Publican 2.7 fixed a bug[1]  that prevented "Draft" watermarks appearing 
>on documents built with the "draft" attribute. Unfortunately, the fix 
>created a new bug[2]  where the "Draft" watermark was visible on *all* 
>PDF versions of documents, whether the "draft" attribute had been set or 
>not! Because of the very high impact of the new bug, we've released 
>Publican 2.8 to address it.
>
>At the same time, we removed a recent feature that enforced an rpmlint 
>check when documents were built in a chroot environment like mock (or a 
>build system the uses mock, like Koji or Brew). In practice, this caused 
>more problems than it prevented, and based on the feedback we received 
>from users, we thought it better to just drop it.
>
>A source tarball and RPM spec file are available on Fedorahosted,[3] and 
>Publican 2.8 should be available in the Fedora repos shortly.

>Cheers
