It doesn't appear as though 7.2.3+14.04.20140826-0ubuntu1 is likely to actually include the fix for this issue. The fix wasn't even committed until several weeks after that package was created (as far as I can tell). The changelog entry for that page doesn't refer this bug number either. I'm not sure why Marco Trevisan (Treviño) (3v1n0) linked to that package's changelog. Perhaps the fix was initially planned to be included in that package but was then removed? Or perhaps some other misunderstanding has occurred.
What are the changes that this fix will make it into 14.04? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
