The 12.6 version is now 9 months old, yet the Ubuntu packages still contain the obsolete 12.5 version.
Does anybody know if there is an active maintainer?

Okay, I have now noticed that the 12.6 version is available in the 16.10 version, but the stable LTS version 16.04 I am using still contains the obsolete version.

You could also compile the 1.12.6 from source code yourself. That is what I did on my Ubuntu 16.04 LTS system.
It is not as hard as it sounds and the instructions for doing it are here.
