Sorry if it came across that way, it was certainly not meant to be the message. We just have been severely burned several times by being too liberal with changes to stable releases. All the changes in that Debian package were never tested (with feedback) on a karmic system, so we better apply changes individually. If there are more fixes to apply in stables (like the crash you mentioned), which have a confirmed patch and no unrelated changes, these are fine for SRU as well, of course. -- ruby garbage collector segfaults under certain conditions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488115 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
