Totally get what you're saying Erich, and exactly right that users need avenues for getting formally backported software on Ubuntu. This is a situation I've found myself in on both sides: as an upstream maintainer wanting to get new releases out to LTS users, and as a distro developer handling ubuntu-backports requests. You're right that the bottleneck in the process is a huge hinderance. There are other fundamental challenges to it, such as backporting applications that need updated dependencies too (which is not at all uncommon). And I get what you're saying about throwing babies out with bathwater and the desire to "never give up". But I'd point out the Big-Picture Goal here is getting properly vetted software backports out to users. For that, there are *many* options (snaps, PPAs, SRU process refinements, docker, et al) that have come about since the initial introduction of -backports. There are pros/cons to these, of course, but at a system level I'd argue that these other options may be why demand for (and interest in maintaining) ubuntu-backports dried up. The other options solve problems -backports can't, or are more convenient or more flexible. So, I would suggest viewing this not as "quitting" but rather a recognization that ubuntu-backports hasn't worked as a process, and that letting it go will open space for other ideas to thrive. We may be better off to invest our limited time and attention by contributing to the backporting processes that are already attracting volunteer attention.

Public bug reported: Please backport task 2.1.2-0ubuntu1 (universe) from raring to precise, quantal. Reason for the backport: The 2.1 series provides new features not included in precise's 2.0 series, most notably being User Defined Attributes. It also includes many bug fixes, performance updates and other minor features which may be of interest to LTS users. A few critical bug fixes have been SRU'd from the 2.1 series to precise; these are direct backports from the 2.1 series so will all be included with this 2.1.2 version. For quantal this provides an upgrade from 2.1.1 to 2.1.2. This is basically a minor bugfix update but does bring some documentation and test updates.

[Bug 96586] Re: Correct multiple inkscape issues in Feisty (SRU and Backport)
Scott, the original request was to get 0.45.1 available in Feisty, as it contains a large number of bug fixes. SRU is only going to accept the three crash bugs, and says the remainder must be done as backports. The description was edited to only list those three bugs, however I believe many of the 0.45.1 fixes (such as the several blur feature fixes) are highly desired by users and feel it is important for 0.45.1 to be available to Feisty users. (In fact, the reason 0.45.1 exists at all is because 0.45.0 was hurried in order to make the Feisty feature freeze cutoff, since the Inkscape developers love Ubuntu - it is ironically unfortunate that today Ubuntu is about the only distro that *doesn't* have 0.45.1 available for its users.) Of those three crash bugs, the odg crash seems to be highly important; both the steps to reproduce it and the patch to fix it are already included in this bug report (comments #9 and #12 respectively). Of the other two crash bugs, with the tspan editing bug I am not able to reproduce nor find steps to reproduce documented in a bug report (I suspect it was discovered in a code review rather than through usage). The comment node handling bug only occurs in the tutorials (easily reproduced though - select a shape in a tutorial and do Effects->Color->Remove Red) and I'm not sure if it would qualify as "high-impact". -- Correct multiple inkscape issues in Feisty (SRU and Backport) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/96586 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is the registrant for Feisty Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

[Bug 120939] Re: X11 warnings after upgrade when moving windows
By chance do you have any flash running in the firefox windows when this occurs? If so, then it may be related to bug 14911. In any case, if you have encountered this after upgrading to feisty from a prior version, can you please re-run the xorg configuration tool, to see if it is simply some leftover from your prior xorg.conf? (Note, if you have binary video drivers installed, you may need to remove them first, and then reinstall after.) $ sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.dapper $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [Moving into xorg package - it's not yet clear this is in libx11.] ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: libx11 => xorg Status: New => Incomplete -- X11 warnings after upgrade when moving windows https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120939 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is the registrant for Feisty Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

Okay, I've added 'feisty-backports' to the bug, so hopefully they'll take care of it from there.
