It's possible, but for your system to see it as an update it'd have to
be a newer version than the one you've installed.

So if the respository is updated with a refresh of the version that
shipped with 14.04.2, and it does an update, that refresh should contain
the fix (according to the info on 2014-05-13). And if it doesn't see it
as an update (because the version that shipped with 14.10 is a higher
version number) then you'll be fine.

I'd suggest keeping the package in your downloads folder or somewhere in
case you have to reinstall, or if something funky happens 14.04.3 comes
out.
