> Any idea when 4.8.18 will be released? I hope to start tomorrow and be done by Monday. I'm not sure how long it will take after that for it to appear in Ubuntu so that a backport can be requested, but I would say a couple of months is not an unreasonable estimate, because it has to go through Debian unstable first anyways.
> The actual patch that fixes the issue is over here I see, if you are confident, you can try Ubuntu SRU process, I've done this a couple of times in the past and it works, but it's sometimes ends up taking months, which is why I'd say backport is a more interesting alternative. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1629497 Title: sftp vfs support not using key-based authentication To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mc/+bug/1629497/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
