Comment 2 for bug 537379

The package in Ubuntu has Ubuntu specific changes.

Either the Ubuntu changes can be dropped and this sync request should outline the reasons why the package can be synced from Debian.

Or the Ubuntu changes haven't been included in Debian and are still relevant in which case the package should be merged.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/Merging for more information.

Since the new upstream release is a bug fix only relase there is no need to get a Feature Freeze Exception.

Unsubscribing the sponsor team for now. Resubscribe the team once the relevant information has been provided.
