As Vivid is now released and this is a new feature, it seems unlikely that we'll be able to update this package in Vivid. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates for policy and rationale. But we can track the update to a newer version of iproute2 in the development release in this bug.

It is worth mentioning that wily currently does not seem to include a version of iproute2 with support for ipvlan either.

Seems like Debian has the new version

Ubuntu is not in sync anymore because of "Ubuntu fAN support", so it needs to be merged ... Andy, can you have a look?
