  According to
  https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libguestfs/+question/372927
  this is fixed in 1.34, though I haven't verified this for myself.

  ******************SRU TEMPLATE******************
  [Impact]

  On Xenial libguestfs fails to configure network and gets into infinite loop,
  because /etc/fstab file is not present which is required by dhclient-script.
  Currently the libguestfs version for xenial is 1.32.2-4ubuntu2 which misses
  the upstream commit [1] that solves the problem.

  [Regression Potential]

  This may impact libguestfs functionality when netwrok flag is enabled.
