FYI, I'm not yet seeing 4.20 on the Ubuntu repo (http://debian.sur5r.net/i3/).

It's not urgent or anything, but since it's been 8 days since the announcement I thought I'd mention it, just in case an automatic build system somewhere is hung or something.

(Detail: after "sudo apt-get update -qq", "sudo apt-get install i3-wm" output includes "i3-wm is already the newest version (4.19.1-1~~focal1)." and no new version is installed.)

@sur5r hand-maintains this repository, so there’s no stuck automation or anything :)

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=998114 currently prevents i3 4.20 from entering Debian proper. Since my repo uses Debian as a starting point, it will only update once 4.20 is in Debian sid.

FYI, the bug seems to have been fixed and there are now packages for i3 4.20 in Debian sid.

Thanks! I'll keep an eye out for 4.20 (or 4.20.1) in the Ubuntu repository.

FYI all, the Ubuntu repository appears to have been updated. I was able to install 4.20.1. Thanks all concerned!

Can you explain how you get it ?
I can't update to 4.20. https://www.ubuntuupdates.org/pm/i3-wm, It's stil at 4.19

I'm using the Ubuntu repository described at https://i3wm.org/docs/repositories.html, not the official Ubuntu repositories.
