On which OS/version are you? Debian Wheezy? Ubuntu Precise?

Answer for your question: a distribution has the SAB version that was available & choosen at the moment the distribution was released. So:
https://packages.debian.org/search?keyw ... ection=all
http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywo ... ection=all

If you want the uptodate version, use the PPA. http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/install-ubuntu-repo

I am running on Raspbain Wheezy (a Debian Wheezy port). Let me try with the report you've suggested.
