I was lucky to see an update of the description these days (even if it mostly 
changed tabs to spaces or so).
Let me congratulate to Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 10.04 LTS (s stands for "support", 
eh?).
Ok, Jaunty - no support. Karmic - no support. With Lucid, we've at least one 
thing: longer time for finishing the support.
But in the change of the description we read:
  "+ The issue was fixed upstream as part of version 1.1.0 (now 1.1.1), which   
 
will be in Maverick as soon as Debian imports begin.                          
  + The attached patch, while developed independently, is effectively identical 
to the fix implemented upstream.  "
-> No support for LongTermSupport Lucid(!). It will be fixed in the 
short-time-supported successor Maverick.

Furhermore we read that someone else has developed independently a
patch. That's nice. But even if 10 or 100 different people would have
invested their spare time to develop seperatly the same patch (what a
non-sense ;)  - it wouldn't have helped to get it into ubuntu.

I'm really, really upset.

A high-CPU-load problem with a patch available needs one year for still-
not-being resolved. How on the other hand will it be with a security
issue (segfaults and so on), when no one provides a patch (or no one
submits it to launchpad, because we've learned it does not help)?

Time to leave. This has no future. bye
