Norbert, The Bug Control team does not control SRUs. We do bug triage, and while SRUs may be part of a fix in the triage process, we need to make additional considerations, which the developers and people who are more familiar with the development cycle do. (This still does not mean Bug Control does SRUs, however, as there are a percentage of us who aren't full developers and work in our own little niches of packages and package sets.)
I poked Adam Conrad (infinity) via IRC on this issue (in #ubuntu-devel on freenode), as they would better understand the glib side of this (they're 'assigned' to the bug), and the discussion we ended up in was that doing an SRU for glib on is a very poor choice. They commented on the bug as such. The ultimate thing is that this needs to be handled with care, and that any 'fix' needs to be carefully evaluated, as glib has a HUGE amount of rdeps. It will ultimately need to be looked at over time, but not immediately. However, I believe that you can get a better idea of what's up by reading the full discussion, which can be found starting here (timestamp 23:04 on the logs) and onwards (until timestamp 23:44 on those logs): http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2015/03/09/%23ubuntu-devel.html#t23:04 ------ Thomas On 03/09/2015 06:52 AM, Nrbrtx wrote: > Dear Ubuntu Bug Control team! > > There is a bug in Glib in Ubuntu 12.04.5 - bug 1214352 > <https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1214352>. > > If it possible please apply an SRU for it. > > > With best regards, > Ubuntu user, > Norbert. > > > _______________________________________________ > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-bugcontrol > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-bugcontrol > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
