No. On Launchpad, just "fix released in Ubuntu" without explicit
version means "There is one or more (not necessarily released) Ubuntu
versions where a fix is included". That could be the current
development version, i.e. currently 16.04 which is not yet released.

It did. Just not in Ubuntu 14.04.

But that's what "fixed in Ubuntu" means on Launchpad.

No, that's not what I'm saying. Please read the links I posted in my
previous comment to see how to get bugs fixed in _released_ versions
of Ubuntu.

No. Someone with the proper permissions (neither you nor I have them)
needs to explicitly mark the bug report as affecting 14.04 LTS and
open it for that release only. I won't poke those people, so it's up
to you to contact them. See the links I posted in my previous comment
for how to do that.

It has. Just not in 14.04.

Once again: Please read the links I posted in my previous comment to
see how to get bugs fixed in _released_ versions of Ubuntu. Opening
duplicates of existing bug reports is _neither_ the way to do that nor
is just whinging around in closed bug reports.
