[Bug 2113788] Please test proposed package
Hello Chloé, or anyone else affected,
Accepted gce-compute-image-packages into jammy-proposed. The package
will build now and be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gce-compute-image-
packages/20250501.00-0ubuntu1~22.04.0 in a few hours, and then in the
-proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.
If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.
Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in
advance for helping!
N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Bug description:
=================== SRU ===================
Following on from similar package update requests @ LP: #2096762, LP:
#2084486, LP: #2073164 and LP: #2066314, this bug is a request to
update gce-compute-image-packages to the upstream version
`20250501.00` @ https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/guest-
configs/releases/tag/20250501.00
This package has an SRU exception @
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#gce-compute-image-
packages including an ageing exception detailed @
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/gce-compute-image-packages-Updates
[Impact]
This package is provided by Google for installation within guests that
run on Google Compute Engine. It is part of a collection of tools and
daemons, that ensure that the Ubuntu images published to GCE run
properly on their platform.
Cloud platforms evolve at a rate that can't be handled in six-month
increments, and they will often develop features that they would like
to be available to customers who don't want to upgrade from earlier
Ubuntu releases. As such, updating this package to more recent
upstream releases is required within all Ubuntu releases, so they
continue to function properly in the GCP environment.
[Test Case]
When a new version of this package is uploaded to -proposed, the
following will happen:
* an image based on -proposed will be built for GCE and published to the ubuntu-os-cloud-image-proposed project
* the CPC team will run internal validations (CTF) and Google's upstream test suite `cloud-image-tests` (CIT)
* the GCE team will be asked to validate that the new package addresses the issues it is expected to address, and that the image passes their own internal image validation.
If all the testing indicates that the new package is acceptable,
verification can be considered done.
Special care will also be taken to ensure that the SRU-ed version also
fixes LP: #2112595 as well.
[Vendored Dependencies]
N/A for gce-compute-image-packages
[Where Problems Could Occur]
Fortunately there are 2 commits/2 file changes between `20250501.00`
vs. `20250107.00-0ubuntu1`. Therefore between the cloud-image-tests
suite [0] (which is run for validation by CPC _and_ Google) and CPC's
own internal test harness (CTF), there is confidence that most if not
all "edge cases" and/or obvious regressions concerns can be dismissed
before the new version lands in `-updates`.
[Other Information]
