Hi,

I’m trying to install CGAL’s latest version (4.6) in a Linux Mint machine. 
I’ve tried with:

sudo apt-get update
Sudo apt-get install libcgal-dev 

But it installs 4.2 instead:

>> apt-cache policy libcgal-dev
libcgal-dev:
  Installed: 4.2-5ubuntu1
  Candidate: 4.2-5ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 4.2-5ubuntu1 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 
Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     3.9-1build1 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/multiverse amd64 
Packages



I see 4.6 can be installed from source, but I’ve tried and failed 
miserably. Is there an apt-get way to install it? Perhaps I’m missing 
something?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Raquel
