Hi, Guilherme.

I think you misunderstood and we are in agreement. What I mean by the
first point is that, on Focal, we need to support 5.4 and 5.15. I don't
even think we need to support 5.8 and 5.11 any longer, though 5.13, as
it will still be supported for a while needs supporting. But I also mean
that we should support not only 5.4.0-113 and 5.4.0-114 (versions on
-updates and -proposed), we should also support older 5.4 versions (one
could argue all the versions that are still livepatchable at least). I
don't think the risk of regressions is big here, but it exists. We ought
to balance that risk and how much we can test.

About the second point, it's just an argument that we should not
restrict ourselves to the upstream major makedumpfile version that is in
LTS+1. Take focal, which will receive 5.15 from jammy. It may require a
newer makedumpfile than the one in Jammy because the one in Jammy may
not be sufficient to support 5.15.

Cascardo.
