Public bug reported:
LXC 4.0 LTS will be tagged in the next week or so.
LXC in Ubuntu is currently in universe as its main user is a snap
nowadays (LXD) and builds directly from the upstream versions.
We haven't written the changelog yet, but one thing worth noting is that
it is 100% backward compatible, we do not break API and don't need to
rebuild any of the rdepend for it.
The main reason to want it in 20.04 LTS is because LXC 4.0 is itself an
LTS with a matching 5 years of support. It also adds support for
cgroupv2 which we expect to become more and more needed in the coming
months/years.
It'd be great if the release team could make a decision based on this already,
if not, I will update the bug with the changelog and diff once we do have the
release out.
