** Description changed: [Impact] This is a major rewrite of ubuntu-advantage-client. This version introduces an updated command line interface (UA Client) to simplify some interaction with Ubuntu Advantage support offerings, and interacts with a new service backend built specifically for this new streamlined experience. Disco, Eoan, and Focal already have this rewrite (but an older version of it), but trusty, xenial, bionic and cosmic do not. This update is for trusty only at the moment, because the other LTSs and later releases have other services available under the UA umbrella which haven't yet been fully converted to the new backend. [Test Case] There are free services available for Trusty and anyone with an ubuntu one account can try them out with the new client. In order to attach a machine to UA, first obtain a token at https://auth.contracts.canonical.com/. With that token, attach the machine with this command: sudo ua attach <token> If that's successful, you will have ESM-infra enabled at the end. Additional test cases to confirm that the package correctly handles upgrades for all relevant cases: - 2. Trusty -proposed upgrade tests + + 2. Trusty -proposed upgrade tests (TODO: run test-2a.sh and attach logs) # 2a. Start with a fresh Ubuntu instance which does not have u-a-t installed (i.e. ubuntu-minimal is not installed). Install u-a-t from -updates. Do not enable ua.

Start with a fresh Ubuntu instance which does not have u-a-t installed (i.e. ubuntu-minimal is not installed). Install u-a-t from -updates. Enable esm with 'ubuntu-advantage enable-esm'. Upgrade to u-a-t from -proposed. b. In an identical instance, install u-a-t from -proposed. Enable esm with 'ubuntu-advantage attach'. c. Confirm that the on-disk results of a) and b) are identical. 4. a. Start with a fresh Ubuntu instance which does have u-a-t installed. Enable esm with 'ubuntu-advantage enable-esm'. Upgrade to u-a-t from -proposed. b. In an identical instance, upgrade to u-a-t from -proposed. Enable esm with 'ubuntu-advantage attach'. c. Confirm that the on-disk results of a) and b) are identical. 5. a. Start with a fresh Ubuntu *precise* instance which does have u-a-t installed and esm enabled. Dist-upgrade to trusty, then upgrade to u-a-t from -proposed. b. In an identical instance, dist-upgrade to trusty with -proposed enabled. c. Confirm that the on-disk results of a) and b) are identical. [Regression Potential] This is a major rewrite from bash to python3 and there are changes in behavior. - new services will be listed, but not avaialble for trusty, only for later LTSs - even when ESM is not enabled, an apt hook will advertise the availability of updates in that repository. This hook has failed in the past while this package was in disco, and that failed the apt transaction. This has of course been fixed since then (see #1824523 and #1824523). [Other Info] This is the FFe bug that got this rewrite into Disco at that time: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-advantage-tools/+bug/1814157 Development of this client is happening on github: https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/ubuntu-advantage-client Recently esm was renamed to esm-infra. Upgrading from an older package where it was just "esm" is handled in postinst. The ESM-infra GPG key can be verified by checking the signed release file over https: ESM: https://esm.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-infra-updates/InRelease and https://esm.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-infra-security/InRelease On an upgrade, existing users of trusty esm are expected to run "sudo ua attach [<token>]", although not doing it won't disable their existing ESM access. The new ua tool just won't recognize esm as being active in its "ua status" output until the attach operation is complete. The same applies to livepatch, if it was enabled before.
