Hi Nathan,

I don't think there is any value in uploading this change. Why don't we just
wait for it to be fixed in Debian? If it isn't fixed there then I don't see what harm
comes of it.

I'm going to un-subscribe the sponsors from this bug. If you still think it should
be uploaded then please re-subscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsors and I or someone
else will upload.

Thanks,

James

James, that is not a problem. I did not realize when I initially prepared the patch that this package was Auto-Synced from Debian. It would cause more harm than good to upload this patch. It would be better to just wait for Debian to apply it. As a result, I am changing the status of the Ubuntu bug report to 'Invalid'.
