[Bug 1540425] Re: install/ziomon: include FCP performance monitoring utilities in s390-tools

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Hello,

Would it be acceptable to ship ziomon in universe, instead of in main
(and thus installed by default)?

The reason behind this is the dependency chain.

The proposed patch adds a Depends on "blktrace", which is in universe,
and in turn depends on libtheora-bin & libav-tools (both in universe).

libav-tools come from a highly vulnerable package, which Ubuntu Security
team deems as unsupportable.

I shall look into unwinding / reducing these dependencies, to have a
possibility of including ziomon in main without the feature to generate
H.264 videos.

Regards,

Dimitri.
