apertium-es-ca doesn't work due to an error matching regexp (code -28)

[Kartik Mistry]

apertium es-ca is useless at moment. Rebuilding on Trusty should be OK. See, https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=726590 for similar bug for Debian.

[Impact]

* Renders package and dependent packages useless.

[Test Case]

$ echo cuatro | apertium es-ca
Error: Unknown error matching regexp (code -28)

After updating package in backport:

$ echo cuatro | apertium es-ca
quatre

ie working fine after backport upload.

[Other Info]

$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Release: 14.04

$ apt-cache policy apertium-es-ca

Can it be fix asap in Trusty? Thanks!

Debian package is fixed in Unstable. What time it will take to get in Trusty?

It renders essential functionality of the package (or a dependent one) broken.
