Hey, Sergio will look for other things nowadays, but before doing so he
has looked into that and mentioned that while fixing it for mantix was
ok, he feared that the backport to the older jammy version would have
been quite complex, dragging in many dependent patches and therefore
overall was crossing his risk-vs-gain bar. So he suggested we close
Jammy as won't fix for this particular issue. Sad for those affected for
sure, but for all others keeping the regression risk low isn't a bad
decision either.

Workarounds, if you can't use a new release, might be using the qemu in
server-backports [1]. Not as official and supported, but for cases like
this often getting you over the finishing line.

This does not mean it can never happen, if anyone is either making this
a more important case or even better is willing and able to spend
backporting and testing efforts this can come back. So far this is a
year old and had no one else chiming in, so it seems to be the better
call - maybe rejecting it now more clearly will bring up many others and
then it needs to be reconsidered.
