Oh, with this again.  Gary.  I have provided feedback to Ubuntu for
probably over a decade -- maybe much less active in the last few years
but that is because...  More times than not they tend to ignore it (and
all but for Myth systems, I have moved away from Ubuntu).  Bug reports
linger, untriaged even, until somebody comes along 4 years later and
closes them as OUTOFDATE.

Ubuntu's problem is not people not reporting issues, including this
exact one we have on hand.  This issue has already been reported at
least as far back on Nov. 04:

Please don't preach to the choir.  By my count, I have filed over 400
tickets with Ubuntu.  Oldest one still open is 2006-12-12.  I test and
report.  Ubuntu don't listen though.
