Comment 11 for bug 1444656

Hello Samuel, thanks for doing this investigation. This feels like a reasonable change to address through a Stable Release Update; the process is a bit involved, but largely so we're sure we don't break existing users in the process.

Are you in a position where you can prepare a debdiff? There's some guidelines on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UpdatePreparation (it's not a perfect match since that page is for security updates, not SRUs, but it's hopefully helpful.)

Thanks
