I am definitely: - not going to help Ubuntu in any way to ship an outdated version (it will only make users re-report fixed bugs upstream over and over again) - not going to help Ubuntu help you break out the NEWS file into individual bugs (I am not reponsible for that the release and package managers missed to look at the bug in time before the freeze, and sync from Debian unstable) - help you I am not going to clone/file separate bugs for each of the relevant NEWS entries. I am not going to help you ship an outdated version. It's not as though recent versions were particularly new or only happened on the day when you froze the distro. with all the fixes I have neither interest nor resources to do so. Do update. You're seeingly and deliberately shipping a version that is unsupported upstream, when a new one was available even before the freeze 1. Newer releases have been available for long enough, both directly and through Debian, particularly before the freeze. 2. Relevant pointers have been filed to the Launchpad Bugs section soon enough before the freeze. 3. I am only supporting the latest upstream release. -- Matthias Andree -- Lucid fetchmail version way outdated and buggy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/557467 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.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
