LOL. Am sure you haven't done enough homework to know about the one you're
throwing that question at. To let you know of the fact, Manoj contributes to
Ubuntu's upstream named Debian and hence not only Ubuntu but a lot of other
distributions which are fed by Debian makes use of his contribution.
If not, then let me summarize for you : It clearly says that a bug found in
upstream can either be fixed by the developer or be passed upstream - andYes, but what we do in launchpad is we mark an upstream bug to our bug so
i
personally have done this and also know that along with me thousand others
do the same.
that we can keep in track of upstream improvements on that bug. This doesn't
ensure that when a patch is submitted in LP, it is auto-forwarded to the
upstream bug tracker (From what I know about bugs and LP). It needs manual
effort in filing the same patch to upstream as well and following it up.
