Bug#632082: weka: Package version is out of date

[Colin Fowler]

Package: weka
Version: 3.6.0-3
Severity: wishlist


The version of Weka supplied in Debian is older than the base version required by the latest version of book "Data Mining: Practical Machine Learning Tools and Techniques (Third Edition)". The "Stable book 3rd ed. version" as listed at http://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/ml/weka/  is 3.6.4. Can this please be updated?
