Regarding introducing this new package in 18.04 (universe) here are the next steps to consider.
1. This package would first need to make it into 18.10, this bug would accomplish that. 2. Once it is introduced in 18.10, it needs to be tested, and tested to work with the 18.04 kernel. 3. Once it is tested and verified in 18.10 and with 18.04 kernel, *in a separate bug* request a backport of this package to 18.04. It is my understanding that introducing this package in the 'universe' archive would be the path of least resistance. Introducing this in the 'main' archive, have it included in the iso, and auto pre-installed etc would be much harder. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1771813 Title: [Ubuntu 18.10 FEAT] new libocxl library Status in The Ubuntu-power-systems project: New Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Add new package for libocxl, which is the user library which allows to interact with the new ocxl "generic" driver, used to interact with opencapi cards/accelerators.
