It should remain as confirmed for now I think. The next step is to apply
the patch to the ubuntu package and use that to create a debdiff. The
debdiff should the be attached to this bug and then you subscribe
ubuntu-main-sponsors or ubuntu-universe-sponsors as appropriate and
request sponsorship (these guys will update it to ubuntu repo and then
it will arrive as a normal update).

Details on these two remaining steps is available here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Recipes/Debdiff
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SponsorshipProcess

PS. Note that if you can get the patch applied upstream, that's great
because it makes it easier to convince ubuntu sponsors that it's the
"appropriate way to fix the bug" and it also makes sure that we will
never hit this bug again in the future. DS.

Thanks for working on this patch Antonio, keep up the good work!!
