(Get the code!)
This seems like a simple problem to fix. I do not wish to take our volunteer developers for granted, but I don't understand why this problem has not been fixed yet in the form of an Ubuntu Update that prompts me. Isn't it as simple as repairing one line of code, and recompiling?
I don't understand why there is talk on this thread of the following:
1. "backporting"
2. "Updating to new versions that exist outside the main repository"
3. "editing the host file"
These suggestions are nice for temporary fixes, but I guess I don't understand the complexity of releasing an official update that will prompt everyone automatically via update manager.
