Comment 27 for bug 320632

@Romain1101:
I expect that we will see the launchpad janitor add some messages here about a fix being released (I don't know for sure) and if so it will automatically change the status. Some time after that (minutes or hours, not days) you should see the updates are available icon in your panel and then you can just allow those updates as you usually do. If you look at the packages first you should see xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 0.99.3-1uuntu2 and those will be Alberto's patches.

You won't have to use apt-get, but once you see them in the update manager you can close the update manager and use apt-get if you want. If not it will all be automatic.

My guess is that those who have tested the new package already have downloaded it from packages.ubuntu.com and installed the downloaded .deb with a lower level program. I'm going to wait myself.
