I'm unsubscribing the ubuntu-sponsors team as this has already been
sponsored albeit rejected by Robie. However, the package can still be
accepted from the rejected queue once the bug description has been
squared away. I've subscribed to the bug and will accept the package
once the SRU information has been added.
