Description
Is there a ppa that hosts a recent version of jsoncpp? I am on Ubuntu 14.10, and the version available through apt-get is 0.6.0~rc2. https://launchpad.net/~fancycode/+archive/ubuntu/jsoncpp also lists the same version.
I am interested in using jsoncpp for a project and would prefer to install it as a library rather than including the code with the project. If I can help create a PPA archive, I would be happy to do that as well.

We are used on too many platform to distribute built libraries for each one. But if you set one up for us, that would be much appreciated. :-)
Now is a good time for it, as the code seems stable and bug-fixes have petered out. Actually, 2 PPAs could be helpful:
0.10.1(which is binary-compatible with0.6.0-rc2) and1.6.1(which requires C++11). Or whichever you think is most helpful today. Thanks!cinemast commentedon Jun 27, 2015
Hi!
The package has been unmaintained the last years in debian (and therefore in ubuntu). We fixed that now and the 0.x.y branch should be always up2date.
Check here:

Thanks for the links. Interesting.
Your latest submission (the ARM fix, plus some back-ported code) is in 0.10.2-p1. I could rename that to 0.10.3 if that's more convenient. It would certainly be easier to sign.

No that's not required. The patch is already in, therefore I won't package 0.10.2-p1.
