Please upgrade keepalived to the latest upstream version

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

keepalived is already packaged, but I can see that upstream version 1.2.7 is available. Ubuntu and Debian have 1.2.2; 1.2.6 is available in experimental.

Please specify which upstream release you are requesting, and consider filing a bug with Debian to have Debian update to the latest upstream version.

Thank you for your correction.

I'm requesting the latest upstream version 1.2.7.

Thanks for your work on this.

What I noticed in your patch:
 - (minor) the indentation in debian/changelog is off a bit - as far as I can see everything is "Remaining changes", right?
 - I think that DEB_UPDATE_RCD_PARAMS, DEB_AUTO_UPDATE_AUTOCONF,
   DEB_CONFIGURE_SCRIPT_ENV, DEB_CONFIGURE_EXTRA_FLAGS all are only used and meaningful in the context of
   cdbs. which is not used in this version any more. For instance seems --enable-snmp not to be passed on during the build.

Ah i was trying to research where those DEB* variables were used thanks for clearing that up. I'll update the debdiffs today to fix the indentation in the changelog

Updated from suggestions in reviewer's comments

Good work. I took the liberty to update the changelog entry yet again:
 - move bug number to top and associate it with the merge and not with --enable-snmp, which is not mentioned in this bug report at all
 - unindented the debian/rules change to make it a bit clearer that it's not something we plan to keep as a delta
 - don't mention dh-autoreconf build-depends addition, as it's something we inherit from Debian

Sorry for nitpicking here, but it's going to help the next person who merges understand which changes exactly are worth keeping.

keepalived (1:1.2.7-1ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low

  * Merge with Debian unstable (LP: #1183300). Remaining changes:
    - debian/init.d: init script header adapted to stop rule
    - debian/keepalived.postinst: Remove shutdown and reboot links
    - Build with libnl3, thanks to a patch from Marc - A. Dahlhaus.
    - debian/control: in Build-Depends: libnl3-dev -> libnl-3-dev,
      libnl-genl-3-dev.
    - debian/patches/ubuntu_libnl3.patch: update patch, make sure it works for
      libnl3 3.2.x.
  * debian/rules: DEB_UPDATE_RCD_PARAMS := explicit init start/stop
    parameters (don't stop at 0 and 6)
    Remove this change since cdbs is not used any longer
