How does one use or apply this fix?

AIUI this is the same problem described here:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/287797/xserver-xorg-lts-quantal-will-remove-many-packages

I have installed the xserver-xorg-lts-precise metapackage but this has
not installed anything else as I am currently running the Precise X
stack.

The above seems not to be a fix. AFAICS, what it does is conveniently
allow one to /recover/ from the problem -- it does not prevent the
installation of the Quantal X stack from removing loads of necessary
components, it just makes it easier to revert back from the Quantal X
stack to the Precise X stack.

Do I understand correctly? If so, it is not a fix. It does not enable
one to upgrade an installed 12.04 or 12.04-1 system to 12.04-2, i.e.
install the 12.10 versions of X.org. /That/ is the bug that is really
being reported here AIUI.
