You bring up a good point.  Warly has posted comments to Cooker ML about the 
download edition being remastered, but there is no indication one way or the 
other that they have stopped the presses to redo the Packs.  Everyone is 
hoping, but I cannot lend any certainty to that statement like I can with the 
download edition.  The fact that things seem delayed is a good thing IMO, but 
absent any official word, you best wait and see.

My comments above were strictly related to the iso's eventually released for 
the download edition, and that they would at least incorporate the LG fix.
