How to "reverse-backport" a package available on earlier Ubuntu distribution to later Distribution?
- by Adam Ryczkowski
There are 4 packages I am using on 12.04 which are not available on 12.10:
xkcd-browser ;-)
cuttlefish
bluphone
xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (it allows for touchpad rotation that could go along screen rotation with randr)
Is there any way of more-or-less automatic reverse-backporting?
(I know, that one "solution" is to wait. But unless I know for how long I should do it, it doesn't solve anything.)
