Comment 96 for bug 36812

Oded,

thanks, I saw patched packages in your ppa and it's great. But my question was, are there any ways to convince Ubuntu maintainers to include them in standard repos?
(more precisely, to apply Ilya's patch to each new Xorg version and put this patched version in standard repo).

I suppose, the reasons are clear: 1) new users get fixed version out-of-the-box 2) no need to reinstall package from ppa after each Xorg update (it's not just a question of 10.04/10.10, they also produce intermediate bug-fix releases of Xorg, aren't they?)

But the whole thing seems to me a little hacky, that's why I ask about procedures,
