I am using the SRU procedure as that should be attempted first.
The bug impact is stated clearly in the description, when referencing
#539008: prevents all non-plain ASCII working in all Mono WinForms apps
owing to overly-broad name space grab.
The bug has been addressed upstream and in maverick with 1:0.4.14-1.
This involves changes to the font outlines, among other things, so I
have created a minimal debdiff which is attached. This creates
1:0.4.13-5 which doesn't conflict with other Ubuntu releases.
TEST CASE: A sample C# program demonstrating the program is included in
#539008. This displays a dialog with umlauts, but when the bug is
present the umlauts come out as boxes.
I don't see any potential for regression as a result of this change. In
fact, I think the newer package from maverick could be backported
without regression, but SRU requires a minimal change so this is my
attempt to provide it.
I don't see the link for "Nominate for release" but I nominate it for
lucid. I will attempt to upload the modified package.
