Comment 14 for bug 1668813

IMHO (wearing my ~ubuntu-sru hat), we can and should bundle this with some other iproute2 update. But users also get frustrated with the number of updates they receive, so I don't think it's worth doing this one on its own.

Let's see if any other ~ubuntu-sru comes by and disagrees. Otherwise, I propose to reject this from the queue the next time I come round to it, but we can leave the bug open so hopefully someone else preparing a different iproute2 SRU can bundle the fix.
