I don't see a problem here for distros. Distros control both the kernel and libbpf, there's no problem in keeping those in sync. Packaging libbpf from the kernel source would not help anything - updating libbpf would still require a new kernel. There's no difference between updating libbpf from a github repo or from the kernel source, as far as dependencies are concerned. Jiri
