** Description changed: [Impact] In order to follow our policy on keeping the container stack (docker.io, containerd, and runc) up-to-date in our supported releases, let's backport the stack in Impish to Hirsute, Focal, and Bionic. It is also important because the new releases contain some CVE fixes. + + The backport of the stack will also fix the following bug: + + https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-images/+bug/1943049 + + Which is an issue when people are running containers with ubuntu:impish + image. [Test Plan] Per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DockerUpdates, our test case is the autopkgtests [Where problems could occur] As usual, we deliver most benefit to our users by delivering an upstream experience. A risk of regressions is part of that. + + [Other Info] + + In order to backport docker.io/20.10.7-0ubuntu4 to Bionic, a new runtime + dependency (golang-github-ishidawataru-sctp-dev) is needed because its a + new dependency of golang-github-docker-docker-dev binary package, and it + is not available in Bionic. We have two options here: + + 1) Add golang-github-ishidawataru-sctp to Bionic. This is the best + solution IMO, the package builds fine in Bionic (just need to downgrade + debhelper from 12 to 11), there is no impact in the packages in the + archive, and it will facilitate the future maintenance when we need to + backport newer versions). + + 2) Roll back the changes introduced in docker.io/20.10.7-0ubuntu2. This + would not compromise the quality of docker itself in Bionic because + those changes were introduced to properly ship libnetwork component in + the library package but it was only needed now in Impish due to the + update of others golang packages. However, we would need to keep + applying this change (the rollback) every time we need to backport a + newer version of docker.io. + + Due to the considerations made above I'd prefer to pick 1).
