Comment 19 for bug 201345

Well, the claim, that the fix is committed has been there for close to one month now, yet nothing has changed.

Frankly, I do a lot of bug triage in LP and even if you are the Maintainer, I am sorry I have to disagree with you here. Whether or not a bug is fixed upstream is indicated by the "also affects project" additional (!) field. And it is tracked just fine for this very bug. That is one of the strong points of Launchpad over bugzilla. I have never come across any project here in Launchpad that already closes bugs where there is a fix upstream but where the fix has not made it into ubuntu. That also completely defeats the nice feature of LP of "bugs fixed elsewhere". So, please don't blame me for using LP the way it was supposed to be used.

BTW, why we don't we actually see the fix that has been sitting there for so long? (I don't mind to sound unappreciative, I am merely curious. Can't it be applied without the full upgrade easily?)
