Jacob, You've got the steps right.
The latest development version of Ubuntu (currently Quantal) must be fixed before considering an SRU. But how the development version is fixed is a little subjective. There isn't a specific rule; just the goal of minimising present and future work. The least ideal situation is for Ubuntu to be carrying a patch that neither upstream nor Debian carries. This is possible, but we want to keep the Ubuntu delta small to make future merges easier so we try and avoid it. And sometimes upstream or Debian fixes a problem differently, which causes additional work for us when we switch from our fix to their fix to minimise our delta. Ideally, upstream will fix it, Debian will pick up the fix and we will merge it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to logwatch in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1010602 Title: samba logs are not being reported in logwatch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/logwatch/+bug/1010602/+subscriptions -- 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
