Hi,
We are now under the Kernel Feature Freeze for Oracular Oriole:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelFeatureFreeze
This means that all the new features for the kernel (6.11) have landed
in oracular-proposed, and from now on we will focus on fixing bugs.
On behalf of the Kernel team,
The oracular release pocket still has the linux-libc-dev user space
headers from 6.8 (the same major version that was released with noble).
The oracular release pocket never saw any newer user space headers, and
we were doing our test rebuilds for oracular with the old user space
headers.
Now when 6.11 migrated to the release pocket, we are flying blind with
these updates to the user space headers, not knowing anything what fails
to build and what stops working.
I think we should avoid that situation, as updating affected packages at
this point requires much more work during freezes. Please consider
providing the updated linux-libc-dev package a few weeks before feature
freeze in the future.
