[Bug 1455482] Re: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream

[Mauricio Faria de Oliveira]

The 2 options are drop or rebase.

Regarding drop, the reason to ask Ubuntu is because Debian just
released, and it would break w/ their release contents, which adds more
work in updates/maintainence. AFAIK, Ubuntu releases are more
independent of each other in the updates sense (please correct me if
that's wrong).

Regarding rebase, definitely ideal and no problems expected w/ Debian.
Ritesh (maintainer) has been friendly and reasonable w/ patch
submission/discussion, and the constraint there is upstream-first, for
which a downstream-patch rebase is not a problem, and actually helps w/
the backport work.

I'll follow up w/ Ritesh in a BTS bug, so that may eventually stream down to W.
Thanks.
