Guys, can we please stop distracting with lame excuses for not going for bugfix releases, or backports of another feature release?
This particular regression was already fixed by the upstream maintainers in a particular bugfix-only release series of Postfix (2.7.1 is 2.7.0 + fixes), so any any further discussion is a waste of time. Any breaking- out of particular fixes to keep SRU policies not only misses further fixes that have been tested and released by the upstream, but also entails the risk of breaking the patched version. Let's get 2.7.3 into -proposed, shout for testers and see if regression- proposed bugs crop up, and re-release through -updates if nothing bad happens. I understand that few packages qualify for release-updates, but I know how strict Wietse is about changes to a .0 release. And it's certainly not the user's fault that ancient versions got picked up in the release rolling process - these, too, need care. And in particular, regression fixing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to postfix in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/777356 Title: [fixed upstream, regression] Postfix smtp does not skip unknown XFORWARD attributes, causing SMTP syntax errors -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
