[Bug 1807750] Re: Use of 'sudo' without dependency on 'sudo' package
This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-image - 1.6+16.04ubuntu1
---------------
ubuntu-image (1.6+16.04ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium
* Do not copy-over /etc/cloud to the rootfs if it's empty. This can cause
base snaps that define the writable-path as 'persistent' and 'transition'
to not be able to provide default configuration. (LP:1808554)
* Fix --with-proposed handling to properly pass PROPOSED to live-build.
* SRU tracking number LP: #1808564
ubuntu-image (1.5+16.04ubuntu2) xenial; urgency=medium
* debian/control: add sudo to the list of dependencies as we need it for
the sudo cp workaround we have in place for xenial's outdated mkfs.ext4
(LP: #1807750).

Title:
Use of 'sudo' without dependency on 'sudo' package
Status in ubuntu-image package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in ubuntu-image source package in Xenial:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
Recently we have backported the ubuntu-image ubuntu-core build support in livecd-rootfs in xenial. Thanks to this we are now able to build ubuntu-core 16 images using SUITE=xenial.
Sadly, in comparison to other series, the xenial ubuntu-image has additional logic used when preparing ext4 partitions due to an old mkfs.ext4 which is missing all the needed functionality. This additional logic (or hack) requires running a `sudo cp` to copy the rootfs contents onto the partition. The launchpad builders do not have 'sudo' installed by default. When attempting to verify bug #1799736 it was found that the build would fail when 'sudo' could not be found. The python3-ubuntu-image package should depend on 'sudo'
[Test Case]
The best test case would be to see if ubuntu-core SUITE=xenial
(core16) images still fail to build due to sudo not being available
after the package lands in xenial-proposed.
[Regression Potential]
The change is only a dependency addition so it should not have any
real consequences. All systems so far had sudo by default, so no users
will see any side-effects (and those that do, they couldn't use
ubuntu-image anyway).
