Bug Description

The version >= 2.17 require ndctl which is in Debian NEW for a while, https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=829257

It's not likely that we update for cosmic at this point since we would need the new library, a MIR and then a libblockdev update

We won't need a MIR because libblockdev already has multiple components in universe. [1] We'll just need to update the exclude list in the ubuntu seed. [2]

We just did the update in Debian and haven't build the new vdo [3] and nvdimm plugins yet.

You need a FFE if you want to do the update at this point though
