OS Upgrades

The openDias release has been derailed slightly with the recent release of Ubuntu Raring 13.04.

It seams that a whole bunch of library updates have introduced memory issues, which has sent openDias tests crazy. I could not in all conscience plan to release with failing tests, even if they are seen to be in 3rd party libraries. Fixing these or providing suppression configs for all the issues will be a major time pit, so what I plan to do is wait a few weeks for Ubuntu/Debian to fix the libraries up.

For now however, there is nothing stopping the current versions - posted on the website - from being used, as other than this bump, we've got 'green lights' across the board.
