Gianfranco,

Pardon my asking, but are you expecting this to be updated for Precise, or
included in Quantal?  If you want this updated in Precise, a fix will have
to be produced, and then subsequently an SRU will need to be filed in order
to get this updated in Precise.  The Precise repos (now that Precise is
released as stable) don't get updated for a majority of packages unless
SRUs get filed (Stable Release Updates -
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates)
