[Luis Henriques (henrix)]

No SRUs to verify, moving to testing.

[John Johansen (jjohansen)]

looks good

[C de-Avillez (hggdh2)]

Tagging qa-testing-failed, see bug 1034930. No other critical issues observed

[Brad Figg (brad-figg)]

The bug was tagged as qa-testing-failed

[C de-Avillez (hggdh2)]

Henrique analysed the issue, and found a bug on the tests themselves, not on the kernel. As such, tagging qa-testing-passed.

[Adam Conrad (adconrad)]

The verification of this Stable Release Update has completed successfully and the package has now been released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regresssions.
