It isn't a candidate for SRU since 13.10 shipped with 0.8.3, so 0.8.6 is a new upstream release. > upstream version, which would be a backport. > > What would be the preferred method to handle this situtation? If you could cherry pick just the change that fixes the bug and apply it to 0.8.3 and it didn't require the new library, then it could be an SRU, otherwise it would have to be a backport. Given that 14.04 is now only a month away, and will shortly be followed by 13.10 going EOL, it begs the question why bother with either? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.14 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBCgAGBQJTJ4kPAAoJEI5FoCIzSKrwz1UH/jaHwNnRAz9+Y5hKlVc0FX+R pZVhjqE8vo+s19GdGxHXDw6Vi0wfryUznweia2O0XpDduV105t3A7BGET2lAEUc5 akYXsJnengkCe7oywQ3n5y3xCF8k+AWGtNAs3lGUl/lQgwCKe9OGgZ7H6yyMKZ9n nCploEti0XRD4lrBJX+BSCaACYykiVdvNuB1rwGhnbcKXqZXZcpb/WqQjwBMGgVF YfHeYpFHlQo/GQxVB7KKRvwD8xjrVyVnL8ycgy3B7mXY1i6lIBHothIplUcz/kkZ NfKQa28s2aDndSFT8IPmigdcnHBV1KM29FY+CpN3zGXkgqsMlJY+lQdaY4kdPZw= =knU9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Ubuntu-motu mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-motu
