Stable release update policies generally disallow that, as there is grave regression potential from introducing new feature baring versions into a stable release using the regular updates repository. It could however go into the backports repository, once 4.1 lands in oneiric. The probably most sensible option would probably be to get an as small as possible patch that fixes this particular issue, so that this individual bug fix could be deployed via updates to every user. regards, Harald -- kubuntu-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-devel
