We'll release 12.0.0 on 2023-04 so 12.0.0 doesn't need Ubuntu 18.04 support. We can drop support for Ubuntu 18.04 support now because the maintenance branch for 11.0.0 is already created.
FYI: We can require CMake 3.16 or later after we drop support for Ubuntu 18.04 because Ubuntu 20.04 ships CMake 3.16 and EPEL for CentOS 7 ships CMake 3.17.
