OS: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
Kernel version: 5.8.0-41-generic
While trying to build ipcdump requires installation of libbpfcc-dev even though building BCC from source is required to run it, which should have been enough to also build ipcdump.

Why build BCC from source instead of using the bpfcc-tools package in the Ubuntu archive?

Why build BCC from source instead of using the bpfcc-tools package in the Ubuntu archive?

Because in the newest version of Ubuntu (20.04.2) with the kernel 5.0.8 the most updated headers are not available, this is also noted in IOVISOR's BCC repository installation documentation in Ubuntu.
