Bugfix-versions is the key here. An mplayer VCS checkout is NOT a bugfix release, it would contain an enormous amount of completely unrelated new code. This is not going to be fixed in Feisty unless somebody can isolate the patch that fixes it. Upgrading to a new upstream checkout has enormous potential for regressions, which we can't effectively test for. -- Distorted MP3 sound https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/85751 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
