Hello Ankush, A warm welcome to the Ubuntu Community In ubuntu generally you get the source package from the Ubuntu archive, make your changes and apply the same, generate the debdiff, attach it to the launchpad bug and then ask a MOTU/CoreDev to sponsor it for you. (Sponsorship means, in short A person who has got upload access to the archive reviews your change and uploads the package for you) The below link might be helpful to you https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix Apart from this you can fix bugs in upstream and debian too and incorporate them into ubuntu. (See Jonathan's excellent detailed explanation on the below link of the mailing list archive https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-motu-mentors/2012-April/000771.html) Also, #ubuntu-motu on irc.freenode.net is a nice place to start off with your queries on ubuntu development. A warm welcome again!
