** Description changed:
+ [SRU Justification]
+ Ubuntu Cloud Images are inconsistent with desktop and bare-metal server
installations since backports are not enabled. This is effected via cloud-init
that uses a template to select an in-cloud archive.
+
+ [FIX] Include the Ubuntu backports in the template.
+
+ [REGRESION] The potential for regression is low. However some users will
+ likely experience slower fetch times on apt-get updates especially on
+ slower or high latency networks.
+
+ [TEST]
+ 1. Build image from -proposed
+ 2. Boot up image
+ 3. Confirm that "sudo apt-get update" pulls in backports.
+
Backports are currently not enabled in the cloud-init template. This is
needed in order to get the backport kernels on cloud images.
