[Bug 1634218] Re: [SRU] For Yakkety and Xenial (0.9)

 

This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-image - 0.9+16.10ubuntu1

---------------
ubuntu-image (0.9+16.10ubuntu1) yakkety; urgency=medium

  * SRU tracking bug: LP: #1634218
  * Fix snap creation.  (LP:1631961)
  * Copy everything under <unpackdir>/image into <rootfs>/system-data
    except boot/.  (LP:1632134)
  * Optional --image-size command line option can be used to force the
    resulting disk image to a larger than calculated size.  (LP:1632085)
  * Fix MBR partition size rounding error due to internal bug and implicit
    sfdisk(8) behavior.  Give by Steve Langasek.  (LP:1634557)
  * Added autopkgtests to ensure all official models can be built, and
    their mountable partitions can be mounted.  (LP:1635337)
  * During image building, stash a copy of the gadget.yaml into the workdir.
  * d/control: gdisk is a run-time dependency; remove the duplicate snapd
    run-time dependency.

Bug description:
  Tracking bug for SRU of ubuntu-image in Yakkety.  I plan to ask for an
  exception so that future uploads to 16.10 can track 17.04 Zesty.

  [Impact]

  ubuntu-image 0.8 fixes several problems found during actual use, including LP:
  #1632134 and LP: #1632085.  These two bugs, and a few other minor issues not
  tracked in Launchpad, affects users who try to build snappy images with
  ubuntu-image.  In particular, being able to set the image size is required for
  the common use case of being able to boot a virtual machine with the resulting
  built disk image.

  I am also asking for an SRU exception for ubuntu-image for several
  reasons:

  * snapd already has an SRU exception: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SnapdUpdates
    Because ubuntu-image is built on top of snapd (the latter which does the
    communication with the store to get the gadget.yaml spec), it makes sense
    for ubuntu-image to *also* have an exception.  The gadget.yaml specification
    is still undergoing development as more use cases are identified, so
    ubuntu-image will need to track changes in snapd.

  * ubuntu-image has no reverse dependencies.  It's a leaf package in universe
    so changes to it will have very minimal impact.

  * ubuntu-image is a new tool.  People only started using it late in the
    Yakkety release cycle so as it sees more use, changes will be likely.  It
    doesn't make much sense to limit uploads, which will only serve to hobble
    the tool in 16.10.

  * For now, we want ubuntu-image as released into 16.10, 17.04, and the snap
    store to be closely aligned, so that all uses are identical.  You may wonder
    why we want to upload it to both the snap store and the archive, but this is
    useful since end-users may be more inclined to use the snap version, but
    official images will use the archive version.

  [Test Case]

  The QA process for ubuntu-image releases is outlined here:
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuImageUpdates

  [Regression Potential]

  It is very unlikely, given the suite of tests we run, that the tool will
  regress.  More so, if it does, it should be very isolated in its effects, so
  it can be quickly fixed with no significant impact on the rest of the archive.
