I guess there are audacious 2.2 builds in some PPA repositories, in this case you might just use that instead.
But there is no way to just package it for official update repositories, because the policy is to keep the versions stable throughout an Ubuntu release and just backport the bugfixes. So somebody would need to find the one difference between audacious 2.1 and 2.2 that makes this bug go away and port it back to version 2.1 if possible. Why is it so dangerous to just push a new version to official repositories? The package audacious is a very good example why this would be dangerous. For myself I use audacious 2.1 with the icecast plugin. Until now I was not able to successfully use the icecast plugin of audacious 2.2, it seems to be severely broken. Pushing audacious 2.2 into official repositories would mean breaking functions for everybody that have worked before. This is something the Ubuntu team has to avoid in any circumstances. Nobody can tell what other functions would break with pushing version 2.2. I hope I could help to explain the problem. -- audacious cannot display ID3 tags in Russian https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/419055 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
