[11:31] <caribou> hey, what's the plan for releasing k4.8 to Xenial ? once Yakkety is out ? never ?
[11:53] <apw> caribou, as in lts-yakkety ?  that is normally available in xenial from yakkety release as a preview and "recommended" from the point release
[11:53] <apw> the following point release
[11:53] <caribou> apw: ok, good to know
[11:54] <caribou> apw: makedumpfile is broken with 4.8 kernels so just want to know when it will become an issue with Xenial
[11:55] <apw> caribou, yeah so a bit of a problem from Y release and a more significant proble from the .2 point release 
[11:56] <caribou> apw: well, when makedumpfile fails, /proc/vmcore is still copied to /var/crash but the resulting file is MUCH bigger as no filtering and compression is done
[11:57] <caribou> apw: btw, anything specific changed with the 4.8 kernel ELF formatting ?
[12:25] <apw> caribou, cannot say i am aware of that kind of thing
[12:26] <caribou> apw: no worry, was just avoiding missing the obvious
