Hello Dan — thanks kindly, I had indeed not noticed….

I guess I’ll have a chance to test if the libelf-dev issue is really the fix when the patches do roll out.

In that vein, I would like to note that https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2017-5754 <https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2017-5754>  makes no mention of bpo kernels in backports.  Is this by design?

Cheers!
