Are you referring to the solitaire game called spider, or to some other application? What is the nature of the proposed change? And is the patch already written? Is the patch specific to Ubuntu? If not, then it should probably be submitted upstream.

Hi

thanks for your response

Are you referring to the solitaire game called spider, or to some other application?
--> the solitaire game !

What is the nature of the proposed change?
--> on this game by clicking on a card, you only can move to maximum two possible solutions and not all the possible solutions.

And is the patch already written?
--> Yes

Is the patch specific to Ubuntu?
--> I think no...

Since the patch is not specific to Ubuntu and affects game mechanics rather than a stability issue, it is best submitted to the upstream project. When the newer version incorporating your changes is later packaged for Ubuntu, Ubuntu will get the changes too. Please feel free to post a reply here if you have trouble finding where to submit the patch.
