I would change the verification status to done here (for now). The automatic processes will claim this bug fixed at some point and then we will have to roll back all states here. Again sorry, for the inconvenience caused.

There is some movement to separate that from the kernel source [2] but this isn't ready yet. So far it is just a sync of the subtree out of the kernel sources. Since we do not share our kernel packaging we will not get this for-free without doing anything. If there will be an ITP about it in Debian I'll let you know and we can abort this, but unless that really happens I wanted to ask if you could as well build the libbpf* packages for 19.10 and onward? Note: this is not the same bpf lib as [3] despite the similarity in names. Reasoning: BPF becomes more and more important in general and is used in the kernel for many things. In the case that brought it to my attention it will be a PMD of DPDK that will need it to control XDP [4]. And XDP in general is an interesting and rising feature for network acceleration - I'd think it would be helpful to have this package around in Ubuntu.
