    I just installed it from the website on top of the update that was installed via update-manager. The about button says it is Ubuntu Tweak 0.5.4.1 still on the both versions. It does seem to have the new features though. looks like the about text was not changed.

    The same with me here, I checked it from terminal with ubuntu-tweak –version and I got 0.5.4.x but the funny thing was when i checked from synaptic it said my ubuntu-tweak already 0.5.5.
