KeePassX 2

I see that KeePassX 0.4.* is available in Trisquel, but I don't see KeePassX 2. I'm trying Trisquel in a VM, and on my host system I use KeePassX 2. I'd like to use the same password database (stored in owncloud), but it's a KeePassX 2 DB.
I tried to install it manually, but it required cmake. I installed cmake, but some other error happened, so I stopped messing with it and moved on to other things. It would certainly be much easier to just be able to install it with apt.
KeePassX 2 was in beta until only a couple months ago, long after Ubuntu 14.04 (the version of Ubuntu Trisquel 7 is based on) was released. New versions of programs don't get included in stable distros like Ubuntu and Trisquel after a version of the system has been released, so the version of any actively developed program is likely to be a bit old.
For now, you could use KeePass 2 instead (package "keepass2").
Interesting. I wasn't sure what the process for getting new or updated packages into the package manager. Thanks. I'll try KeePass 2.
Additional information:
- the Web browser is an exception (it is updated soon after the related Firefox release);
- one can enable (e.g., using the "Updates" tab of "Software & Updates" in the "System settings") the "backport" section of the repository to get newer versions of some packages (not KeePassX though)
- Trisquel proposes LTS enablement stacks (for the kernel and the graphical stack).
And, of course, it is possible to install software from third parties (PPA, compilation from source code, etc.). At your own risks.
Thanks for that info. I didn't know about the backport updates. Good to know. Maybe a recent ownCloud version will be there. The version in the package manager now is very out of date. I can't even login to my ownCloud server with it. I had to add the Ubuntu repo to apt in order to get a version that works.
