 * Deprecated the usblp kernel module for USB printers and used libusb instead. CUPS upstream recommended this instead of accepting our patch for a hybrid (support for both usblp and libusb) USB backend. CUPS upstream accepted our patches for USB URI migration and for broken device ID support (USB-to-parallel adapters). (TillKamppeter)
 * Investigations on firmware file upload into HP's cheapo laser printers. (TillKamppeter)
 * Created a report listing bugs that are affecting a good quantity of users, please review it at [[http://people.canonical.com/~pedro/desktop/]] so i can customize the report for your specific area. (PedroVillavicencio)
 * deja-dup got Ubuntu One support (mterry)

Partner update

Unity

Software Center

Kubuntu

X.org

  • Mesa upload (and subsequent Xserver upload) blocked on llvm-2.9 MIR (Bug #790204)
    • Extended the dricore patch to also factor out a shared Gallium library; saves a couple of megabytes of CD space
  • nvidia-current multiarch patch sent to Alberto Milone.
  • Cairo now has the EGL/GL backend re-enabled; this reopens https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cairo/+bug/725434, resulting in nvidia's libGL causing each process that links with cairo (ie: anything that links to GTK) dirty about an additional 5MiB of memory. We need to decide what to do about this.
