Hello Thorsten,
the Ubuntu SRU policy is that we have to patch latest releases first and than go down to the oldest release that is affected, and that just took some time (esp. during year end break).

But it's almost there - and you can even use it today - from proposed.
s390-tools version 2.12.0-0ubuntu3.7:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/s390-tools/2.12.0-0ubuntu3.7
is the package that incl. the zgetdump fix (as well as support for the secure boot trailer).

You can easily use it as follows:
sudo add-apt-repository -y "deb http://us.ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ $(lsb_release -sc)-proposed main universe"
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --yes s390-tools

(It will soon be promoted from -proposed to -updates.)
