Dear Canonical,
It fills me with frustration that you chose to distribute our
development version of abiword-2.92 with your LTS 12.04 release. This
was done without any consultation with the abiword community AT ALL.
Please revert to abiword-2.8.6 ASAP.If this is not possible please
advise me as to how you plan to fix these bugs since you don't upgrade
packages either.
