Is this fixing a current FTBFS? Do we have another bug for the memory usage issue in LP?
Furthermore, you may with to get rid of "[ Ubuntu Merge-o-Matic ]"; since you did the merge work yourself ;)
Finally, in this case there does not look to be any new features introduced with the merge. Am I correct in that assessment? This case is trivial here, but merges might otherwise require a Feature Freeze exception if merging introduces new features during a freeze period; see https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/ZestyZapus/ ReleaseSchedule.
