Ubuntu generally does a horrid job of importing the excellent debian
packages. For a long time, they were ignoring security releases. The
Debian 4.2 packages are available in testing over there, you may need to
vote for them to come over.

While you can use the deps from 4.0.19 to get some deps for 4.2, you
won't get all of them.

Generall Best Practical installs from source, even on our Ubuntu
machines.
