For anyone new to Linux who's confused:
When ARRL releases a new version of TQSL, they only supply the source code as far as Linux goes. They do not maintain the respective packages for each distribution, like they do for windows.
The package maintainer for a particular distribution will have to compile the source for each architecture and version before it will install "automatically" through a package manager.
So, a lot of times there will be a delay between when you see the ARRL announce that a new version is released, and when you will see it show up in your Linux package manager as an update ready to be pushed out and installed.
This delay is the time between a source release and the maintainer building the package for your particular distro, version, and architecture.
If you don't want to wait you can always compile and install yourself, not hard to do at all once you get used to it!

Use the kamal's PPA.
It's a kind of super updated unofficial repository ready to use, see
here:
.. which has no newer versions than trustedqsl 2.0.3
I'll mail the maintainer, maybe he can start updating the ubuntu trustedqsl package again.
