[15:26] <manjo> rtg, I have a cust asking what the kernel version in 16.10 might be... 4.7 perhaps ? 
[15:34] <manjo> apw, ^ ?
[15:35] <apw> manjo, tends to be 2-3 later, so 4.6/4.7 is a believable answer, we tend to be more speculative on an lts + 1
[15:35] <manjo> apw, ok cool I will tell them 4.7 is the best guess for today 
[15:35]  * xnox read that as "more spectacular" instead of "speculative"
[15:36] <apw> i think you mean awsome
[15:40] <manjo> apw, yeah they are trying to figure out what the hwe kernel for 16.04.2 migh be because their platform will be certified with that kernel. 
[15:41] <manjo> apw, and they have a few kernel patches to upstream
[15:48] <apw> manjo, understnadable, but its too early to be sure
[17:11] <xnox> apw, could you update https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1543165 ?
[17:11] <xnox> is it done / not done?
[17:12] <apw> xnox, it is not done, it is on my list for today/tommorrow thoug
[17:12] <apw> though
[17:12] <apw> not that there is a whole heap of today left
[17:13] <xnox> ack. tah.
[17:15] <jtaylor> is there a chance bug 1248289 can at least be fixed for 16.04?
[17:15] <jtaylor> its just missing build depends and maybe a small change to a makefile
[17:17] <jtaylor> bug 1396654 is probably a dup
[17:17] <jtaylor> oh already marked, I'm blind
[17:20] <apw> jtaylor, are you saying all we need is your patch in the lsat comments ?
[17:25] <apw> debian.master/control.stub.in: libunwind8-dev [amd64 arm64 armhf i386 powerpc ppc64el] <!stage1>,
[17:27] <apw> oh it is libbfd-dev is it ... hmmm
[17:33] <jtaylor> apw: I'm not sure if yuo need it in xenial, I needed on trusty
[17:33] <jtaylor> might have been an older perf version
[17:34] <jtaylor> let me just try if its still required in trusty
[17:38] <jtaylor> apw: still is required on trusty
[17:45] <jtaylor> apw: but interestingly it appears to not be needed in xenial
[19:00] <apw> jtaylor, odd
[19:02] <jtaylor> probably some binutils updates
[19:02] <jtaylor> --as-needed does have some bugs
[19:02] <jtaylor> might have been fixed in the meantime
