As kernels 5.2.0-x will bring zfs 0.8.x to Bionic LTS, I'd like to draw some attention to this request. People will get the 0.8.x zfs module via HWE but won't be able to do much with the major new features without the userland tools.
I tried to install the debs from Eoan, but they require a higher libc version which complicates that route a lot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to zfs-linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1791143 Title: Suggestion to make zfsutils-linux a snap Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: This circumvents the need to keep it on the same major version throughout the LTS cycle. LXD is doing snaps, perhaps for zfs this is the best approach as well. Xenial still has zfsutils on generation 0.6, with the module on 0.7. Even when patches are applied as needed that approach has its limitations. E.g. the Bionic cycle might possibly see 2 major zfs releases, who'll say.
