Lubuntu 18.04 has a rather annoying bug, number: 1782984 . This bug appears because of a problem in the libx11 (version 1.6.4 in lubuntu 18.04), and affects several key applications such as pcmanfm, inkscape, gimp …
The bug was finally fixed in version 1.7.0.
As I understand it, this version will be used in ubuntu hirsute , and as it says in the linked page the necessary dependencies for this package are already fulfilled by lubuntu 18.04. In fact, I downloaded the source and could compile it without problems.
Is it planned to solve bug 1782984, upgrading libx11 library to 1.7.0?
If not, someone would be so kind as to tell me the steps to take to perform the upgrade myself. Since libx11 is such an important library for the system, I’m afraid I’ll do it wrong and mess up the whole system.

Moving from Lubuntu Support Development
Generally, the way to deal with this is to go through the Stable Release Update process. It’s a bit of annoying paperwork, but the process is there to guard against the high likelihood of breaking something on an already released version of the OS. Given that this is a major change in version (from 1.6 to 1.7) rather than simply a patch (e.g. from -0ubuntu1 to -0ubuntu2), it’s going to be a relatively involved change to implement, the likelihood of pitfalls and conflicts is relatively high, and because of these, it’s going to require some extensive testing.
I’ve been thinking about what to do with this and I’m really not sure. The Lubuntu team is a small one and we’ve almost always got more work to do than we have volunteers. Given that, we have to prioritize some things over others. Given that our support for 18.04 ends in about 3 months, I’m concerned that dedicating our limited time to this task may not be a good use of our time.
However, I think it would be a good idea for Ubuntu Developers to backport, not only for 18.04, but quite possibly for all other supported versions as I suspect it’s an ongoing problem. I say this because while Lubuntu (like most other flavors) have shorter support time frames than standard Ubuntu, the Ubuntu community still supports the packages in the archive until the Ubuntu support timeframe ends. This seems especially true given that LibreOffice seems affected.
I’d be curious to hear what other Lubuntu Developers think about this. In particular, I’d love to hear what @kc2bez @tsimonq2 and @teward (who is an Ubuntu Core Developer) think about this.

So, with my Ubuntu Core Developer hat on, any backport - whether via SRU or the backports repository - will result in a HUGE list of things that get affected by the rdepends on the runtime binaries libx11-6, not to mention the corresponding sets of autopkgtests:
$ apt-cache rdepends libx11-6

This is pretty much the entire GUI stack and all GUI applications for all flavors . Any backport, either as SRU or in Backports, needs to be tested against every single one of these rdepends - and that’s just the libx11-6 binary components, not the build libs, etc.
I’m against the backport or SRU of this as a full version backport/update because of the reasons that this goes well beyond the Lubuntu scope and has an extreme chance of torching/breaking the entire GUI stack. For all releases.
THIS SAID, if there’s a specific upstream patch or revision that fixes the bug that’s being encountered , then that could be SRU’d, but a full version backport is basically asking all flavors to do a full test of all packages etc. - something that’s done during the dev cycles, not for a bugfix. You may want to email the ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com list or ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com asking someone to refer to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libx11/+bug/1782984 and the corresponding nitpickable change from upstream https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/commit/dbb55e1a5e82870466b095097d9e46046680ec25 that fixes it and maybe they should push to update the stack.
HOWEVER, this is all beyond the scope of the Lubuntu Team’s purview.
