The released version 4.2.1 is actually version 4.2.0. https://github.com/piface/pifacecommon/releases/tag/v4.2.1

Can someone fix this? I think due to this issue the SPI frequency fix for newer kernel is not available from packages on RPI Model 3 B+. Without the fix pifacerelayplus board does not work out of the box on later RPis. It is annoying!

I confirm Pyface is unusable on Raspbian Stretch so a new release would really be great.

Accoring to issue #27 you should use Python's pip installer instaead of APT package system. The newest releases are no longer included there. BTW, on pip latest version is 4.2.2

Hi, I'm not in touch with the Raspbian maintainers any more. Please try getting in touch with them if you'd like to take on Raspbian maintainership for this package.

These days I prefer distributing Python packages via PyPI anyway, which contains the latest version of pifacecommon: ........ Please try using pip to install PiFace software instead. I will update the install instructions.
