Comment 83 for bug 1479913

The thanks are to the individuals handling the bug and arriving at a solution. Alberto Milone, for instance, has been in on a couple of bugs I've reported/followed.

Bugs happen. It's a fact of life. They get reported and they get fixed (hopefully).

From a systemic viewpoint, however, this case is an especially troubling problem. The issue was identified in -proposed and not resolved. Despite that, the offeding package(s) was promoted to main. For that there is no excuse.

But that is a systemic issue for Canonical to address at a higher level. The folks here who responded to fix the issue do deserve credit for their work.
