The fix has been merged upstream, so it will appear in the next set of Debian packages (1.4 in July this year). But I doubt I'd have much success convincing Debian that they need to update the 1.0 packages with a patch that only affects an Ubuntu distro version that hasn't even been released yet. The Parrot packages currently in Ubuntu (0.4.13) had quite a few differences from the Debian packages. Since I merged those changes back into Debian, the 1.0 Ubuntu packages are more similar to the Debian 1.0 packages than the 0.4.13 ones were.

What I'd like to do is get the patched 1.0 package into karmic now, so testing happens on a recent version of Parrot, then push the 1.4 packages into both Debian and Ubuntu in July.
