We have a stable release update (SRU) process [1], which can be applied for this bug. Someone needs to do the packaging work (grab the five patches and put it in the source package), create a bug against cmake, state a test case (commands to reproduce the error you stated above), think about possible regressions. We have no concept of package maintainers in Ubuntu. Every Ubuntu developer can touch any package. We have the sponsoring process [2] for getting a package uploaded if you do not have upload rights. You are welcome to get involved and follow the SRU process [2] instead of waiting for an Ubuntu developer to do it. We tend to be busy with a lot of stuff.
