Bug Description

Focal has 4.26-0.2ubuntu3 which FTBFs and fixing it would require either disabling many tests or picking many upstream commits.

Please accept new upstream realease 5.5 already packaged in Debian instead.

The proposed package is tested in Bileto and there are no unfixed regressions compared to the results of the latest tests (some systemd tests are still running):
https://bileto.ubuntu.com/#/ticket/4019
https://bileto.ubuntu.com/excuses/4019/focal.html

I've also rebuilt reverese build dependencies:
https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-service/+archive/ubuntu/3203/+packages

The only build failure are on riscv64.

==============================================

* Improvements
  * Implemented syscall return status filtering with -e status=set option
    and its aliases: -z (limit syscall printing to successful syscalls only)

    and V4L2_* constants.
  * Updated lists of ioctl commands from Linux 5.1.

Noteworthy changes in release 5.0 (2019-03-19)
==============================================

* Changes in behavior
  * -D option now implies -I4: by default strace ignores SIGHUP, SIGINT,
    SIGQUIT, SIGPIPE, SIGTERM, SIGTTIN, SIGTTOU, and SIGTSTP when -D option
    is used.
  * Diagnostic message is no longer printed if an attempt to restart a process
    has failed with ESRCH. (Addresses RHBZ bug #1662936.)
  * ASCII dump no longer tries to read the whole buffer at once. As result,
    it can fail with a diagnostic message after dumping only a part.
    Amount of preceding zeroes printed for offset is now chosen in a way
    to accommodate all the digits of all the offsets being printed.

* Improvements
  * Changed the way tracees are handled: all pending tracees are now waited for
    before further processing, this improves fairness of tracee processing.
    (Addresses RHBZ bugs #478419, #526740, #851457, #1609318, #1610774,
    and maybe some others.)
  * Enhanced xlat styles support configured by -X option.
  * Enhanced decoding of bpf syscall.
  * Enhanced decoding of PTRACE_PEEKUSER and PTRACE_POKEUSER on hppa.
  * Enhanced pid formatting in strace-log-merge output.
  * Wired up kexec_file_load and rseq syscalls on aarch64, arc, metag, nios2,
    or1k, riscv, and tile architectures.
  * Updated lists of BPF_*, BTRFS_*, FAN_*, IFLA_*, KERN_*, KVM_CAP_*, NDA_*,
    NETNSA_*, NT_*, PR_*, REL_*, SECCOMP_*, SCTP_*, UDP_*, V4L2_*, and *_MAGIC
    constants.
  * Updated lists of ioctl commands from Linux 5.0.

* Bug fixes
  * Fixed ordering of sockaddr_in6 fields.
  * Fixed strace-k test on alpha.
  * Fixed build on mips o32.
  * Fixed build on NOMMU architectures.
  * Fixed build in --with-libiberty=yes mode.
  * Fixed potential NULL dereference during printing of line continuation
    for syscalls that haven't been decoded.
  * Fixed strace-log-merge error diagnostics.
