Comment 13 for bug 850960

We will not backport 335 changed files to precise-updates. Not knowing what changes are in there introduces a significant chance of regression for existing open-iscsi users who are not affected by this bug. I'm certain that the SRU team would find this an entirely unacceptable risk. It defeats the whole point of having a stable release, and I understand that the development release is already fixed (and thus so will the next LTS).

Other routes are available, such as the backports repository, but backporting such churn and making it available to users automatically is not an option due to the risk of regression. Only a minimal patch is acceptable for an automatic update. I hope you understand this reasoning.

This bug remains open for Precise. Volunteers to drive any of these options are welcome.
