While backporting docker.io/20.10.7-0ubuntu4 to Bionic, I noticed that a new runtime dependency (golang-github-ishidawataru-sctp-dev) was added to the golang-github-docker-docker-dev package and it is not available in Bionic. We have two options here:

1) Add golang-github-ishidawataru-sctp to Bionic. This is the best solution IMO, the package builds fine in Bionic (just need to downgrade debhelper from 12 to 11), there is no impact in the packages in the archive, and it will facilitate the future maintenance when we need to backport newer versions)

2) Roll back the changes introduced in docker.io/20.10.7-0ubuntu2. This would not compromise the quality of docker itself in Bionic because those changes were introduced to properly ship libnetwork component in the library package but it was only needed now in Impish due to the update of others golang packages. However, we would need to keep applying this change (the rollback) every time we need to backport a newer version of docker.io
