Excuse my brief and mysterious way of writing.

What I do myself if to set importance to all the confirmed bugs, so where to begin is always warranted to be known.

On the other hand we cannot tell if a bug is more or less important when posted in this mailing list, so that's why we won't jump into those.

It would take mostly the same time to fix this bug than to revert the package to a previous version. The difference is that reverting usually breaks new things.

Most people here isn't paid for the job, and they do it just for the willingness of helping.

Moreover this particular bug affected only one known person. So this is why it received that little attention, because just one person worldwide seems to be annoyed enough by it.

I think Carlos is right. Upstream could point directly to a patch, or even fix the bug themselves for you.

In any case thanks for reporting.
