Looks like there's an upstream patch, too, if anyone wants to check that out.

Did this ever work? At what point did it stop working?

I don't know if it ever worked.

Why lxtask developers hasn't made a new release due this issue? Is the project dead? It's sad that lxtask still doesn't change the priority on bionic beaver.
