Comment 3 for bug 1425677

Thanks for reporting.

I found a corresponding Debian bug report and have attached a bug watch. The maintainer there has been working on a new version, but is unfortunately waiting on license information from upstream.

Regarding backports; normal procedure is that new package versions land in the development release. Once this has happened, it might be possible to request a backport of it for older releases (along with potentially any required dependencies). https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBackports has more information on backports, in case you haven't seen it already.
