libxvidcore4 is a Multiverse package. It's not in Universe. If by "SRU",
you mean "security-related update", then that's wny updated version
might not be there.
Ubuntu doesn't technically offer support on Multiverse/Universe
packages. They often do upgrade them for security reasons but they state
that they don't have to.
On the other hand, I note you indicate what the new version number
supposedly is. Where did you get this information?
