How to Update Wmaker?

I`m using the WindowMaker Desktop Manager which I installed with the command below:

apt-get install wmaker

Although, that`s not the Last release. I have the 0.91 instead of the 0.92. How to update it?

Hi,

Type this first in a terminal (as root)

Code:

# apt-get update

When it's done type this:

Code:

# apt-get -u upgrade

Take a look at the packages it want to upgrade and press 'y' to install

Another thing is that you look like you're in Sarge (Debian 3.1). That may be the latest release for Sarge (new packages don't enter the Sarge repositories). If that is the case, then the only way to use the latest WindowMaker would be to look in a "backports" repository or to upgrade to testing (etch) or unstable (sid).
