Public bug reported:

The latest packaged version is fscrypt v0.2.5, which is almost a year
old.

Since then, some serious limitations have been addressed that depend on the 5.4 
kernel. 
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/filesystems/fscrypt.html

The v2 encryption policy allows for some non-trivial fixes that allow
usage with docker, www-data and other situations for which multiple
system users require access, that right now forces us to use LUKS rather
than fscrypt, and have been released specifically before the launch of
the Ubuntu focal 20.04 LTS release.

Can we update this package for focal to fscrypt v0.2.8?
