Upgrade to Udisks 2.0 to get a working floppy drive?

[John Hupp]

The bug which kept floppy drives from working in udisks 1.x (included in 
Lubuntu) has been closed without a resolution. Developer or maintainer 
David Zeuthen advises upgrading to 2.0, in which which he says floppy 
drives work.  See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30283#c26

Is there any reason not to upgrade in Lubuntu 12.04?  How do I do it?
