I appreciate the response. If you recall I did post the link so it's a safe assumption that I read the page and understood it's content. What I'm after is whether there's any other information channel that might not be so obvious for seeing if there might be action coming up for an particular issue. Being in a highly regulated industry the legal department has a tough job. I work within the guidelines they set.
If Karanbir thinks it merits an upstream bug report, I'm almost sure
he might do that, if the original bug
poster doesn't. It "might" be fixed by the time 5.3 comes out, but do you want to wait?
I am restricted to 5.1 as approved by legal. 5.2 is not approved so 5.3 isn't an option either.
Does that mean that your Legal Department does not permit you to upgrade your box, to get the latest packages, issued for Security & Stability reasons? 5.1, as you are well aware, is not the latest and greatest.
