Just for clarification. I believe that patch Thomas refers to was believed to be causing issues building the package for Ubuntu. The patch found to cause the computation error was moreinformativeappstart.patch or something like that. On May 13, 2012 3:25 PM, "Thomas Ward" wrote: > Steffen, the pa

The MOTU SRU team isn't going to support an SRU in this case (because of a version change, according to the MOTUs I spoke to yesterday). They are more likely to be willing to support a sync to Quantal for the Debian version of the package, and then a backport of that to Precise (the repository tha

Between you and I, I agree 7.0.27 should be in Precise. But the process for updating stable versions is complex, in that unless the fixes also exist in the latest development version, they will rarely push the stable release update. I ran into this with six other packages, so I speak from experie
