Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better.

If someone can prepare a backport, please follow the steps at:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure

All the steps documented there need to be followed. In particular:

1) Explain the bug well enough so the SRU team (who are probably not
familiar with this package) can understand the real user impact in terms of
use case so they can make a decision as to whether backporting the fix to
stable releases justifies the regression risk to existing, unaffected users.

2) Make sure that the fixing this in a stable Ubuntu release does not
regress existing users of the module not affected by this bug (e.g. other
architectures or ways of consuming this module).

3) Have a test case that can be followed by someone not familiar with the
package for SRU verification purposes.
