Bug Description

This package was not synced for a while. As it looks we could drop a lot of delta while the remaining addition are mainly the renamed submission site (oops.kernel.org) which we are (still) not using directly.

Although the version delta sounds massive (a 5 year gap) the mainline delta is fairly small and to my eye is all minor parsing fixes and the like. The debian delta is also small. I can see no new features in here. Having the same version as debian is a major boon for an LTS.

summary:

- Sync kerneloops from Debian for Xenial
