The new version discussion is different from the issue reported there so maybe a new bug should be opened about that or the ubuntu-devel list should be emailed for discussion, in any case you should subscribe the sponsors back to the bug that should get reviewed -- Please merge lilo 1:22.8-8.3(main) from debian unstable(main) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/669363 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The git of Lilo upstream is official, because I am the current developer of Lilo. The Debian/Ubuntu git is still inofficial - but up to date. On the other hand in the internet exists only a very old official CVS. How I have said some days ago there is a difficult situation in maintaining of Lilo in Debian. Here you can read more about this topic: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=587886 If the CTTE committee of Debian decide, that I may overtake the maintaining, then I am the new maintainer. > > Finally the new packages for Ubuntu can be uploaded to the official > > repository. > > Shouldn't we rather wait on a Debian upload and sync from it? We can wait, but I don't know how long we must wait: two weeks, two months ...? Perhaps to long for Lilo and for Ubuntu. > The stable update rules usually allow only selected fixes for specific > issues, it's not likely that this version would be allowed as such but > backporting some of the patches might be possible. I would suggest So there apply similar rules as for Debian.

Because there are a problem with Lilo maintaining in Debian: Perhaps it would be the better way to make the packages for Ubuntu directly above the Ubuntu Developer Team without waiting on Debian maintaining.
