Title:
  Please update mdadm to version 3.1.2

Status in mdadm - Tool for managing linux software RAID arrays.:
  New
Status in “mdadm” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mdadm

  The version of mdadm in the repositories is quite old:

      rune at runescomp:~$ mdadm --version
      mdadm - v2.6.7.1 - 15th October 2008

      rune at runescomp:~$ apt-cache policy mdadm
      mdadm:
        Installed: 2.6.7.1-1ubuntu15
        Candidate: 2.6.7.1-1ubuntu15
        Version table:
       *** 2.6.7.1-1ubuntu15 0
              500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages
              100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  about 20 months to be exact: http://neil.brown.name/git/mdadm

  Could we get an update of this package in the Ubuntu repositories?
  It would - at least -  fix the bug which brought me here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8548193, but probably a lot has been added in these 17 months between version 2.6.7.1 and 3.1.2.
