Uh, postponing to 18.10 wouldn't be so great: 18.04 is an LTS release, and we 
imagine that this tool will come in very handy when debugging 
performance-related KVM issues in the field. And, mind you, some of our 
customers shut down their environments for security reasons - so adding a 
script to run as root is not so easy! So not having kvm_stat in 18.04 is a big 
deal for us.
We could drop the commits mentioned in comment #17 - that was just courtesy on 
our part, since a previous comment mentioned that python 3 support is a big 
deal for Ubuntu.
Or maybe even drop the additional patches requested in comment #12 entirely.
To us, anything is better than not having kvm_stat readily available at 
customers at all.
