Indeed, I don't think it is.

Since we recommend this in the installer, I've just spent some time
cherry-picking a few patches from upstream to resolve the crash bug and
others - it becomes apparent once you fix the immediate crash and fail
to launch problems that there are some UI rendering issues. I'll clean
up and upload this to Utopic today - hopefully it can be accepted as the
patches aren't too invasive.

Hopefully somebody else would take care of SRUing to Trusty at this
point. It's got basically the same version so possibly it'd just be a
straight backport.

Cheers,
