Does that mean Ubuntu will receive an updated version as well?

Title:
  Lensfun version in package is outdated

Status in darktable package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in lensfun package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in lensfun package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  Lensfun 0.3.0 and 0.3.1 brought major improvements with them, in
  particular the possibility to update the lens database without re-
  installing Lensfun or updating the package.  This is very often
  requested by users.  Besides, the lens database has grown heavily over
  the last two releases, with more than 200 new lenses.  Therefore, I
  think it is senseful to put some effort in updating the package to
  v0.3.1.

  The old Python-based build system was removed from Lensfun.  If the
  package used it, this would make non-trivial changes necessary.

  Moreover, there are some scripts included now that are supposed to go
  into /usr/bin, so probably, a new package lensfun-utils or lensfun-
  tools becomes necessary, depending on your packaging guidelines.

  I'm a dev of Lensfun and willing to help with that.  I have only
  little -- albeit not none -- experience with Ubuntu packaging.
