Foundations team had a brief discussion about this today, and we'd love to get this fixed. For example, we were looking at packagekit, which is out-of-date because of this problem. If I'm reading the thread correctly, the choices are roughly between upgrading jubany to precise and backporting pristine-tar and xz-utils (and their dependencies) to precise, or in some way getting the importer running on quantal. We're in favor of whichever approach can be accomplished quickest and gives us the highest probability of long-term importer improvement and success :). If it helps, one of our guys would be willing to help backport some packages to precise, but I'll let him speak for himself. :) Cheers, -Barry
