The news is from IBPhoenix! Go to
http://www.ibphoenix.com/main.nfs?a=ibphoenix&page=ibp_old_news
and look for:

08-Jun-2007 Firebird is now included in the next ubuntu release
(Gutsy Gibbon) All you will need to do is to type this in the shell
sudo apt-get install firebird2.0-super firebird2.0-common
firebird2.0-dev firebird2.0-examples

I'm running feisty so dont get it, but if you do an (experimental?)
install of gutsy you can have 2.0 to play with...

HTH
