Yes, since the Ubuntu kernel still has the mcelog interface endless, the
mcelog package could be used in Ubuntu.  However, the interface is
marked deprecated and the package was subsequently removed from Debian
and then Ubuntu.  I don't see a reason to reintroduce this package in
sru, instead of users migrating to non-deprecated interfaces.

I might be willing to accept an sru if someone felt strongly about it.
But for now I don't intend to do any work on this.
