<![CDATA[Include all bug-fix releases after an Ubuntu release]]> http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/12439/ For example gimp-2.4.7 is a bugfix release that is not on ubuntu repositories.
There are also openoffice releases, that are bugfixing but are implemented only after an ubuntu release.

I believe that ubuntu should update it packages, after a software bugfix release has been made in order to improve it's stability.

Would this mean a split of Backports?
Real-Backports
Just-Bug-Fix-Backports

What if the bug does not affect stability, but only corrects a typo or other non-critical bug? Should the package be specially updated? It's still a bug fix....]]> Fri, 22 Aug 2008 17:06:02 +0000 Comment from Ssdg To be honest, bugs and security issues are fixed by updates.

If you want a package update, file a report on Launchpad explaining why that release should be pushed in to a stable release. You should explain that it only fixes bugs, or rather, it fixes an important bug that many users hate and must get into hardy-updates.
