[Scott Moser <ssmoser2+ubuntu@xxxxxxxxx>]

The proposal to merge ~smoser/cloud-init:fix/ci-allow-deb-older-than-distro into cloud-init:master has been updated.

Commit Message changed to:

tests: Use apt-get to install a deb so that depends get resolved.

Instead of using 'dpkg -i' to install a package and then running
apt-get -f install, to hope that it would install needed dependencies
we can just use 'apt-get' directly to do the install.

The 'dpkg/apt-get -f' path was a problem if the installed deb was
older than the available deb. In that case it would get replaced.
