Comment 130 for bug 868400

James, Anthony: do you really need those fixes to land in the official archive? Our resources are limited and at this point we need to focus on precise LTS and quantal rather than Oneiric, having to build and test all those Oneiric backports has a cost. I'm keeping the bug open in case somebody is still interested to sponsor Oneiric updates but I can't justify spending extra time helping on those myself, I would recommend you consider updating to the LTS or building your own overlay ppa with the fixes you need for that project.
