Public bug reported: 12.04 uses ec2-api-tools 1.5.0.0 12.10 uses ec2-api-tools 1.6.1.1
AWS is deprecating the SOAP API, which is the only one that 1.5.0.0 supports (newer version not in backports either). 1.6.1.1 supports the use of the AWS Access/Secret keys, which is their way forward. Precise will be with us for a while, so it would be good to update these tools to suit. -- Deprecation notice seen in help text for ec2-create-snapshot v1.6.1.1: -K, --private-key KEY [DEPRECATED] Specify KEY ... -C, --cert CERT [DEPRECATED] Specify CERT ... and AWS 'managing credentials' page http://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/ManagingCredentials.html ** Affects: ec2-api-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1170223 Title: backport quantal ec2-api-tools to precise To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ec2-api-tools/+bug/1170223/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
