Correct, we'll sync the debian unstable package when Cosmic officially opens.

Backported packages (based on the debian unstable version) are available for testing in the Ubuntu Security Proposed ppa https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-security-proposed/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/ . Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks!
