[DC LoCo] Can Anyone Explain LP: #563895 To Me?

[Ken Stailey]

We have been considering paid support to get bug fixes in a timely fashion.  Do you think that would help and if so what sort of paid support would help us accomplish this?  Thanks

Hi,

Can anyone explain LP: #563895

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/563895

March 21, 2010 - Reported as Debian #574863

April 4, 2010 (elapsed 14 days) Reported as LP: #563895


June 2, 2010 (elapsed 73 days) Fix committed into Debian and Debian bug closed.


July 5, 2010 (elapsed 106 days) Fix committed in Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick)


September 10, 2011 (538 days) Complaint (not by me) in LP #563895 using the words "not having a fix for this in "LTS" after more than a year makes me sad"


November 8, 2011 (597 days) I convert bug into SRU request with debdiff of patch and PPA with patched grub2 packages.

November 14, 2011 (604 days) by submitting this question[1] I am able to get someone to acknowledge that this bug needs work.


[1] http://askubuntu.com/questions/79347/what-is-the-policy-for-updating-grub-pc-in-lts

December 6, 2011 625 days later LTS still becomes unbootable under circumstances that have a well-known fix.

Thanks,
Ken
