Well, i'm not an Ubuntu developper, and I don't really know how things 
work outside Debian. As Precise has been released, and as this is not a 
fix for a major breakage or security issue, i don't think there's any 
chance having it accepted in a point release (i guess Ubuntu has got 
point releases too).

Nevertheless, I see backport branches exist in Ubuntu too, so it could 
be solved this way very easily. I don't have upload rights, so i Cc-ed 
the Ubuntu MOTU list which is the Ubuntu Maintainer for this package.

If you're in a hurry, you can manually download and install the Quantal 
package which should work perfectly (at least from a packaging point of 
view).

Regards.
