This package is part of the ‘universe’ section of the Ubuntu or Cloud archive.
Universe packages are maintained by the community, and the maintainers do not
necessarily work for Canonical, therefore these packages are not always
supported by Canonical directly.
The existing process to update packages in the Universe archive with patches,
is as follows:
1. Upstream: Upstream your fix to the appropriate upstream project.
2. Debian: once your patch is ack’ed and accepted upstream, you need to request
a merge of this patch to the package in Debian stable.
https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting use this link to report your issue and
submit a fix.
3. Ubuntu: Once it is merged into Debian stable, request a merge of this
package with Ubuntu. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debian/Bugs will provide you an
overview on how to handle bugs that are reported to Debian and subsequently to
Ubuntu.
- The merge request lands by default in Ubuntu's current development release
(today ‘Artful’).
- If required an SRU may follow to get the changes into already released Ubuntu
versions (like ‘Xenial’ or ‘Zesty’).
Work with the respective upstream maintainers (Debian and Ubuntu) is required
during this process. For critical issues we can advise you as you go through
this process and help push the patches through by chasing the appropriate
project contributors.
