Thanks Daniel for your note! But my message was precisely inspired by the impossibility to bind a bug to something that is not the development version. I have no option to 'nominate for quantal' in the launchpad UI, nor to 'target for release'. Searching for 'nominate' or 'target' in the bug page returns nothing with my account that is not a developer one. Apparently the initial reporters of bugs do not have anymore the option to tie a bug to a series.
The result is something that I have already seen a few times. The bug gets 'fix released' status and since it is closed everybody forgets about it. No SRU is made and one either: (i) stays waiting for a SRU for a long time with no clue whether this will be issued or not; or (ii) start searching for backports in the PPAs ending up with a machine that relies on far too many PPAs than desirable (*); or (iii) makes his own package fork in a PPA with the fix; or (iv) opens a new bug with the same title ending with 'in quantal'. None of these options is very satisfactory. Anyway, good to see that Andrey has made a quantal package in his PPA with the fix. (*) there are currently 497 PPAs found searching for "fix"es for something that is buggy in stable. Surely, many of these are probably inactive or obsolete, but they are still a lot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libcanberra in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1075928 Title: Please, silence IA__gdk_error_trap_pop: assertion `gdk_error_traps != NULL' failed Status in “libcanberra” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: On Kubuntu 12.10, whenever a gtk application is opened from the konsole, the terminal gets flooded with Gdk-CRITICAL **: IA__gdk_error_trap_pop: assertion `gdk_error_traps != NULL' failed which makes the konsole almost impossible to use after a gtk application has been backgrounded. The only way to start gtk apps from the konsole (or a terminal) keeping the konsole usable is to start them redirecting stderr to /dev/null, which should not be the case. This message turns a probably innocuous bug in gtk apps into a severe annoyance also to the konsole.
