Ubuntu 12.04.3 backport gnome 3.6.3 e unity 7

Asked by Marco Gianni

Hi, as you can see in the title, i want to propose my idea about the current LTS 12.04 . With the version 13.04 of Ubuntu, there will be no longer in the future versions Unity- Compiz and others components and the time of support this version is too short ( 9 months ) . So, why don't you backport Gnome 3.6.3 and Unity 7 in Ubuntu 12.04.3?? This update will come out in August right? So there are 4 months after ubuntu 13.04 to fix other bugs of them (gnome and unity) . There is also another backport that i propose, the backport of the kernel 3.8.0.x ; it has increased the performance of the computers, for me it could be very good to see in the next update of the 12.04 LTS. What about it?

I suggest you report a bug. If the version is rock solid stable and the bug and security features are great then it will be updated. Often the packages in the LTS are left on older versions in favour of stability. The non LTS versions will get newer versions.

You may also find a PPA with the newer version but it kind of defeats the objective of using the LTS release.
