** Description changed: With trusty, /bin/ping relies on having extended attributes and kernel capabilities to gain the cap_net_raw+p capability. This allows removing the suid bit. However, the tarball cloud images do not preserve the extended attributes, and thus /bin/ping does not work on a system derived from them. Summary of problem per package: - * lxc: ubuntu cloud template needs to extract - * download template needs to extract with xattr flags - * server side download creation tools need xattr flags - * [unconfirmed] tarball caches need creation and extraction with xattr flags - * tar: need the '--xattr' and '--acl' flags backported - * maas: uec2roottgz needs to use xattr/acl flags - * curtin: extraction needs to use xattr/acl flags. - * cloud-image-build: needs to create -root.tar.gz with xattr/acl flags + * lxc: ubuntu cloud template needs to extract + * download template needs to extract with xattr flags + * server side download creation tools need xattr flags + * [unconfirmed] tarball caches need creation and extraction with xattr flags + * tar: need the '--xattr' and '--acl' flags backported + * maas: uec2roottgz needs to use xattr/acl flags + * curtin: extraction needs to use xattr/acl flags. + * cloud-image-build: needs to create -root.tar.gz with xattr/acl flags + + + SRU curtin + ========== + + [Impact] + + As the original bug report description mentions, curtin's extraction + needs to use xattr/acl flags. + + [Test Case] + + To reproduce this bug, use curtin extraction without the extended file + attributes. + + [Regression Potential] + + TBD
