<html> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> </head> <body>Hi everyone! The package has been uploaded, and there's an FFe bug (<a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntustudio-meta/+bug/1989263">https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntustudio-meta/+bug/1989263</a>) for inclusion in kinetic currently. That should probably be converted to an SRU for jammy later on, but getting this in kinetic should definitely happen soon. I pinged the kubuntu team about this as well, but so far haven't received a response.
