No, that's not how Ubuntu stable releases work. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates for details.

Or, in other words, we did update it - we call it Ubuntu 18.10.

The next release will most likely have 1.4.16. 1.5 has yet to be
packaged, and needs able volunteers to join the packaging team if you
want it sooner. We're past feature freeze now, so the earliest it can be
expected, if volunteers appear, is in the Ubuntu 19.10 release.

Alternatively someone could volunteer to package it as a snap and make
the latest available to all Ubuntu releases at once, as well as to other
distributions. See https://snapcraft.io/ for details.

Varnish is in universe in Ubuntu, so depends entirely on volunteers to
look after it.

To start with, please make sure a bug exists in Launchpad for the issue,
creating one if it doesn't. It certainly won't get addressed if nobody
knows about it.

Next, if you can prepare the required packaging fix, then please see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates for details on our policy
and procedure for getting the fix landed. Feel free to ask here for help
if you need it, but note that somebody will need to volunteer to
actually do the work - failing that it won't get done.

Note that if the systemd unit file is broken and that is the only fix
needed, then it is easy to work around with an override in /etc. See
systemd-system.conf(5) for details. It would be useful to leave
step-by-step workaround instructions in the bug to help others.

HTH,

Robie

Thank you for the suggestion.

The Ubuntu kernel team don't regularly read this list.

Please could you contact the Ubuntu kernel team mailing list with your
requests? Details are here:

https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kernel-team

It's kernel-t...@lists.ubuntu.com (probably moderated).

Thanks,

Robie
