Linux - Packages

Why does what version of a package get installed on Ubuntu?

apt-get install jenkins
(installs jenkins)

dpkg -l |grep jenk
(to list what version is installed)
ii  jenkins     1.424.6+dfsg-1ubuntu0.2     Continuous Integration and Job Scheduling Server

Then head over to http://packages.ubuntu.com/
and pick your version of Ubuntu and do a SEARCH.

And hopefully what comes back is the same as what you had installed.

ALSO..........
And it gets an upstart script put in place in  /etc/init/jenkins
which reads from /etc/default/jenkins
