Would this have an impact on the size of the next point release? Is 1.3<br>
substantially different to 1.2 in size on CD?<br></blockquote><div>If we just upgrade to 1.3 series, and use the seed in lucid, then it shouldn't be a problem.

We strongly avoid version bumps in an SRU, the case would need to be<br>
watertight - have you pushed 1.3 into -backports, for example, is there<br>
substantial evidence of app compatibility?.<br></blockquote><div>I agree that version bumps is not a good idea. The fact here is:</div><div>1 ibus 1.2 series in lucid have serious memory leak issue, which even upstream author recommended to use 1.3 for a LTS</div>
<div>2 ibus 1.3 do make itself more usable to end users. </div><div>3 If we decide to SRU whole ibus stack, only those ibus related, which most are IME. will be affected.</div><div> apt-cache rdepends ibus</div><div>ibus</div>
<div>Reverse Depends:</div><div> ibus-pinyin</div><div> xubuntu-desktop</div><div> ubuntustudio-desktop</div><div> ubuntu-sugar-remix</div><div> ibus-tegaki</div><div> ibus-skk</div><div> ibus-mozc</div><div> ibus-array</div>
