crash (7.2.8-1ubuntu0.18.04.1) bionic; urgency=medium

  * Version bump from Focal, based on upstream release 7.2.8 (LP: #1865041):
    - Multiple fixes up to kernel 5.5-rc1 (e.g., fixes for kmem/timer/log
      commands, for kernels with symbol namespaces and with KASLR enabled).
    - Improve handling of /proc/kcore (live memory) for x86_64 kernels with
      CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE enabled.
    - Fix ARM64 page size handling on kernel 4.4 and before.
    - Improve offset gathering and ELF support on KASLR kernels in S390X.
    - Support xz compressed vmlinux.
    - Fallback to log buffer parsing in case panic task can't be determined
      by normal means in the dumpfile.
  * Remaining changes:
    - Update the maintainer field for Ubuntu.
    - If the "live" autopkgtest fails with a recommendation to try
      /proc/kcore instead of the default, attempt that before failing
      the test. LP: #1858958.
  * Fix test, as if will return 0 when no cases were true.
