Hi all,

I am not sure why there is so little progress here. The patch I attached
is the one mentioned in debian bugtracker, and I provided the link in my
initial report. Also, I tried to build a new package containing the
patch for myself - which was rather easy, since I only had to adjust
changelog, control and put the patch to the right location. After that,
dpkg-buildpackage worked really well.

So I wonder If I can do anything else to get that patch into official ubuntu 
repositories?
It has been two weeks ago that this news message raised my attention:

I just checked for ubuntu status and discovered, that there is no updated 
package. Well - I decided to give it some time., since the patch was already 
available for debian I figured it would only need some time to be available in 
ubuntu as well. After waiting some days I checked again - and there is no 
update. So I tried to hit launchpad, but up to now I am getting the impression 
that it is not leading anywhere? So - in the end my question is: what can I do 
to help here?
