just a final note on this, sshuttle from trusty is still affected by
this, and since focal does not install the 'net-tools' package (which
provides netstat) by default, sshuttle from trusty to a default install
of focal will fail.

** Description changed:

  [impact]
  
  the remote system sshuttle connects to must have netstat installed, or
  sshuttle fails
  
  [test case]
  
  from a xenial system, install sshuttle and attempt to create a sshuttle
  connection to a remote system that does not have netstat installed
  
  [regression potential]
  
  any regression would likely result in a failure to successfully
  create/initialize the sshuttle connection. it is unlikely any regression
  would cause problems after the tunnel is established.
  
  [scope]
  
  this is needed only for xenial.
  
  this is fixed upstream with commit
  809fad537fa6977da3e3915f5a125e2a3d163254 which is included in v0.78.3
  and later, so this is already fixed in bionic and later.
+ 
+ note this bug does affect sshuttle in trusty, but that release is out of
+ standard support and into ESM only, so will not be patched (unless the
+ security team wishes to patch it in the ESM repository).

** Also affects: sshuttle (Ubuntu Trusty)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Changed in: sshuttle (Ubuntu Trusty)
       Status: New => Won't Fix
