Looking at the autopkgtest failures - the network-manager s390x seems to be failing for every package since over a month. It shouldn't be related to the modemmanager changes. I might hint it in later.

[Test Case] * install modemmanager and it's dependencies from -proposed libmbim-glib4:amd64 1.14.0-1ubuntu0.16.04.1 libmbim-proxy 1.14.0-1ubuntu0.16.04.1 libmm-glib0:amd64 1.6.4-1ubuntu0.16.04.1 libqmi-glib5:amd64 1.16.2-1ubuntu0.16.04.1 libqmi-proxy 1.16.2-1ubuntu0.16.04.1 modemmanager 1.6.4-1ubuntu0.16.04.1 * reboot and try WWAN function to see if any regression there. * perform general dogfooding of its reverse dependencies (network-manager, gnome-control-center etc.) [Regression Potential] * The package comes from Zesty and should not have regression there. * Every new upstream release can potentially break existing dependencies if any of the required features have been changed/removed, so besides regular testing a general dogfooding session with the new modemmanager is advised. [Original Description] We would like to upgrade xenial to 1.6 series so it supports the same modems as the modem-manager snap, specifically some new Sierra modems (HL8548 and others from HL series, popular in IoT devices). These are the packages that would need to be updated: libmbim: 1.12.2-2ubuntu1 in xenial, 1.14.0 in snap libqmi: 1.12.6-1 in xenial, 1.16.2 in snap modemmanager: 1.4.12-1ubuntu1 in xenial, 1.6.2 in snap This is also related to bug #1693756 which includes a subset of patches of what would be updated.
