** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  sosreport 3.6 has been released in June 2018 with further enhancements
  in core sosreport functionality.
  
  I already did the request for debian :
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=900818
  
  and 3.6 has been uploaded in Debian since then (Thanks to caribou):
  sosreport | 3.6-1 | testing
  sosreport | 3.6-1 | unstable
  
  and I have synced sosreport (Debian->Ubuntu Disco).
  
  Now, it would be great to have sosreport v3.6 SRU'd in supported stable
  releases once official release upstream, considering the fact that the
  release (especially LTSes) will contain a number of enhancements, new
  features, and bug fixes and that sosreport is widely use by Canonical
  support team to troubleshoot UA customer.
  
  Just like we did for v3.5 (LP: #1734983)
  
  [Test Case]
  
   * Install sosreport
   * Run sosreport
+ 
+ [Bugs identified during our testing]
+  * juju plugin detection doesn't work if installed as a snap:
+    https://github.com/sosreport/sos/issues/1475 (fix already submitted 
upstream)
+     
  
  [Regression Potential]
  
   * Regression risk is low, as long as the core functionnality works
  (Package manager, ...)
  
   * autopkgtest reveal no regressions.
  
   * We did some dogfooding on sosreport, but we can't test each
  individual plugins and scenarios one by one, that would be impossible
  but we have tested the ones we considered important and Ubuntu related
  (canonical-livepatch, MAAS, juju, openstack, ...). Plugin bug is an
  eventuality, but they are usually easy to fix and the impact will be
  isolated to the plugin itself or section of the plugin. If a plugin has
  a bug the worst that could happen is that this particular plugin won't
  collect system logs, debug information or anything this plugin was
  instructed to do, usually won't affect other plugin to perform as
  expected and/or sosreport to complete.

  [Original Description]
  
  sosreport 3.6 has been released in June 2018 with further enhancements
  in core sosreport functionality.
  
  A sync can be done since all Ubuntu patches has been integrated in 3.6
  
  I already did the request for debian :
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=900818
  
  and 3.6 has been uploaded in Debian since then (Thanks to caribou):
  sosreport  | 3.6-1                | testing
  sosreport  | 3.6-1                | unstable
  
  Now, it would be great to have sosreport v3.6 in Development Release &
  SRU'd in all supported stable release once official release upstream,
  considering the fact that the release will contain a number of
  enhancements, new features, and bug fixes and that sosreport is widely
  use by Canonical support team to troubleshoot UA customer.
  
  Just like we did for v3.5.
  
  [v3.6 Release notes]
  
  # https://github.com/sosreport/sos/releases/tag/3.6
  The sos team is pleased to announce the release of sos-3.6. This is a
  significant release containing a number of enhancements, new features,
  and bug fixes, including:
  
  29 new plugins:
  alternatives, ansible, btrfs, buildah, clear_containers, date,
  elastic, fibrechannel, host, kata_containers, lustre, memcached,
  mssql, networkmanager, nvme, omnipath_client, omnipath_manager,
  opendaylight, openstack_octavia, ovirt_provider_ovn, ovn_central,
  ovn_host, rear, release, runc, skydive, unpackaged, watchdog, wireless
  
  User and policy defined command line presets
  
  The ability to save and recall specific combinations of command
  line parameters
  Policy authors may define presets for specific situations, products
  or other uses (e.g. "cantboot", "rhel", "openshift" etc.).
  Size limits for external commands
  
  Certain commands produce large volumes of data, inflating report
  size (e.g. journalctl): the command collection interface now allows
  an arbitrary size limit to be applied, which includes memory used
  during the run (reducing sosreport's peak memory usage).
  Automatic file and command size limits
  
  Plugins that do not specify an explicit size limit for files or
  commands are now subject to the default value (specified with the
  --log-size command line option).
  Plugin authors may override this behaviour if needed
  Concurrent plugin execution
  
  Plugins are now run in parallel using a thread pool
  Reduces runtime by up to 50% (workload dependent)
  Command line --threads option to set the number of threads to
  use, or to disable parallel execution
  New profiles (including containers and the Apache webserver)
  
  major enhancements to core features and existing plugins:
  
  better package manager version information
  policy support for detecting package managed files
  fixed exit status propagation
  deprecated optparse replaced with argparse
  simplified and improved SoSOptions interface
  better error handling during interactive prompting
  allow journal collection by identifier
  allow collection of journal message catalogs
  support for collecting binary file data

  more human-readable report file names by default
  increased default log size (25MiB vs. 10MiB)
  support for forbidden path lists and forbid logging
  support for enabling plugins by kernel module name
  support for enabling plugins by executable name
  support for collecting eBPF (bpftool) data
  support for device information via add_udev_info()
