I disagre. GDM is a main Ubuntu package, so it merits that the fix be
applied. From what others have reported, this also affects stability for
at least some users. That in and of itself merits a bugfix be applied to
Hardy. Also, Hardy is supposed to be an LTS release, is it not? That
means it will be around for a minimum of three years for many users,
including corporate users who may be adopting Ubuntu. Does Ubuntu really
want to give its users the impression that it isn't interested in
providing all possible bugfixes for LTS versions even if the fix is
already known?
