The bug's existence and content are completely acknowledged. However,
the usual standard of stable release updates is much higher when an LTS
exists that you can update directly to, as that is the recommended
thing to do. There is also a workaround (create the symlinks yourself).

If you can justify the fix based on whether or not this causes a security
problem and/or exposes users to data loss, then I'm sure we'd be happy
to change the status back to Triaged and of course would accept a patch
that meets the usual standard of being non-invasive and only fixing the
bug at hand.
