$ /usr/lib/texmacs/TeXmacs/bin/maxima_detect

I have texmacs 1.0.6.11 on Ubuntu 8.04
Running maxima or WXmaxima is Ok. When I try to insert a session inside
TeXmacs I got
    -e ed Unsupported version of maxima: 5.13.0

TeXmacs-1.0.6.11 is too old. Please edit your maxima_detect and tm_maxima files (usually they live in /usr/libexec/TeXmacs/bin, don't know about Debian-based systems... use locate to find them). maxima_detect should contain

if $MAXIMA --list-avail | grep -F "version 5.9.1
version 5.9.2
version 5.9.3
version 5.10
version 5.11
version 5.12
version 5.13
version 5.14
version 5.15" >/dev/null
then
# 5.9.1 or 5.9.2 or 5.9.3 or 5.10 or 5.11 or 5.12 or 5.13 or 5.14
or 5.15

and tm_maxima should contain

5.11.* | 5.12.* | 5.13.* | 5.14.* | 5.15.*) exec maxima -u $1 -l $2 -p
"$TEXMACS_MAXIMA_PATH/texmacs-maxima-5.11.0.lisp";;

So, please, extend (shorter) lists of versions you have in your old TeXmacs.

BTW, it is quite easy to compile TeXmacs and maxima from sources, and to have up-to-date versions. No need to wait for Debian (&Ubuntu) people.
