We like to have the proposed diff directly in the p-u bug, along with a description of the changes, what they fix, what the risks are. Pointers to more information elsewhere are not bad, but they don't replace information that should be in the bug. In this case the upstream changelog doesn't really provide much context on which if any of the fixed issues are serious enough for us to want the update in stable. > - I've basically imported the changes the Ubuntu people have done in > Ubuntu together with 12.2.12.
