It would have expedited the release of this SRU if someone had retried the systemd/armhf autopkgtest failure, or provided some concrete analysis of why this test is expected to fail and does not need to be retried.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1682102] Re: libseccomp should support GA and HWE kernels
A 2.3.x in Xenial would also allow to drop some Delta that the Cloud Archive is adding to "drop" newer seccomp support we add for latter releases - so seconding Tyhicks question being interested as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to libseccomp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1682102 Title: libseccomp should support GA and HWE kernels Status in libseccomp package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in libseccomp source package in Xenial: Confirmed Bug description: [Impact] out of date libseccomp w.r.t. custom and hwe kernels provides sub-par userspace protection, which is otherwise available on the running kernel and hardware combination.
