** Description changed:

- Install zsys on a non ZFS system without the kernel module loaded leaded
- to a segfault.
+ [Impact]
+ * People building or installing their own custom kernel without the ZFS 
module built-in were impacted: they were installing zsys and postinst was 
segfaulting.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 1. Have a custom kernel without the ZFS module built-in
+ 2. Install ZSys: no segfault should be reported.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ This is an edge case for some users going out of ubuntu support, but we still 
make their lives better.
+ 
+ Note that this doesn’t impact people with traditional ext4 system
+ running ubuntu kernel and installing ZSys, as this was already handled.
