---------------
xe-guest-utilities (6.2.0-1120+dsf1-0ubuntu4) zesty; urgency=medium
* debian/xe-guest-utilities.xe-daemon.service: declare
DefaultDependencies=no to prevent dependency cycles. The unit cannot
be simultaniously before and after sysinit target. By default all
units are after sysinit target, yet cloud-init-local is before it. LP:

Bug description:
[Impact]
* xe-deamon.service tries to be an early boot unit; before cloud-init-local
/ networking is setup
* However it does not declare DefaultDependencies=no, and thus tries to pull
in sysinit.target which should happen after cloud-init-local; yet
xe-daemon.service is declared to be before cloud-init-local, thus this is a
conflict of interest.
* xe-deamon should declare DefaultDependencies=no

[Test Case]
* Boot a cloud instance, with xen hypervisor and cloud-init metdata
* There should be no boot cycles
[Regression Potential]
* Minimal, currently xe-daemon.service creates dependency cycles
which prevent reliable and reproducible boots.
