I like Ubuntu, but in the last few months I have been following how things are packaged more closely.

For example, looking at the package for postgresql-14, an update still hasn't been released for the unscheduled mid-June release version 14.4, which fixed possible index corruption.

I would have thought this would have been packaged earlier, as I would expect the Ubuntu + postgresql would be a common combination.

It makes me wonder exactly how much of a resource is behind creating Ubuntu distributions.

I don’t really have any sources to back this up, but my impression is that Canonical is kinda trying to punch above their weight.
