Not directed at you, Rodney, but can someone PLEASE explain why critical issues aren't being fixed in 11.0? I thought 11.0 was still being supported.
Most likely because there are no resources...
Then they shouldn't say that 11.0 is still supported. Either it is and patches are backported, or it isn't and patches aren't backported.
AFAIK, the guaranteed support is for security patches only, the rest is optional.
Whether Bugfixes are done is decided on a case by case basis.
When I am back from sickleave I will have a look at it.
Thanks, Marcus, I appreciate it. Personally, I haven't run into this problem (or I'd have saved the log file for you guys to look at), but it is somewhat distressing to find things and be told "fixed in next release, won't fix in this release". I ran into that with a bug in gsynaptics not long after the 11.0 release and I had to fight to get that patch backported from the *pre-release* 11.1 (where it was fixed). Seems kinda silly to me to have to do that.
