Public bug reported: It looks like xe-guest-utilities 6.2.0-1120+dsf1-0ubuntu1~14.04.0 appeared in trusty-updates recently. When I did an apt-get upgrade, the previous version (from XenServer) was replaced. Which might be ok.
Unfortunately did it also pull in cloud-init via its dependencies which made the reboot an interesting experience because cloud-init first tried to contact various servers which failed and took a long time and then replaced the SSH keys with new ones. Which broke our automation. Please make cloud-init a recommended or even only suggested package. ** Affects: xe-guest-utilities (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Summary changed: - backported xe-guest-utilities pulls in cloud-init which does werid things and reconfigures the server + backported xe-guest-utilities pulls in cloud-init which does weird things and reconfigures the server -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1496940 Title: backported xe-guest-utilities pulls in cloud-init which does weird things and reconfigures the server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xe-guest-utilities/+bug/1496940/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
