By mistake, first I installed from Ubuntu repositories and received BB 1.0. Then, updated it to 1.8. I think it's time you should submit a newer version. to ubuntu :-)
There is a team of people from Debian and Ubuntu that manage these releases into the repositories.
Ubuntu has what seems like a weird policy: they update BleachBit only with new releases of Ubuntu, so Ubuntu 14.10 will always have BleachBit 1.2 and Ubuntu 15.04 will always have BleachBit 1.6.
I do not like this because the old versions are so much out of date, and they also disabled the automatic notifications.
Thanks Andrew. In both Windows and Linux I installed version 1.10 from the Sourceforge repository and everything is working fine. While it's unimportant, I am curious about the version numbering system.

Download the .deb, .run installers from the official website is the best.
