Actually bug controllers don't get the nominate for series link because we get a "Target for series" link instead. Which means the nomination was accepted. But the problem is that accepting it and creating a jammy task also requires the task have an owner - someone assigned to do the backporting. So I won't be doing that right now without someone first volunteering to own the work. I know this is convoluted and potentially irritating but it is the process we have.

The number of similar bugs in this situation that are fixed in Ubuntu-next but not yet in the most recent LTS is non-trivial. I don't have any stats but this is a common situation so I don't want to make an exception here when we potentially have more important bugs that could be backported to jammy. Any bug fix _can_ be backported immediately, just so long as someone is volunteering to own the task.
