** Description changed:

- ==== FFe
+ Apologies, this bug should have been filed in gce-compute-image-packages
+ (you'd have thought after all this time the different naming schemes
+ would have stuck by now!)
  
- Please except this version for plucky before the release. catred
- provides good detail here [0] in the relevant bug, but essentially
- version 20250107.00-0ubuntu1 in plucky affects cloud-init due to newly
- included systemd-networkd hooks. A user attempting to set their hostname
- via cloud-init will no longer get the expected hostname, but rather the
- internal default hostname set by Google. For any users upgrading to
- plucky who are using cloud-init with a large fleet, this would be a
- breaking change.
- 
- It also (selfishly) would help CPC a lot to get this new version in
- quickly. There are 2 other SRUs (LP: #2096765 && LP: #2096762) blocked
- until this new version here can also be SRU-ed (as we validate all the
- Google guest packages "wholesale" due to their interplay).
- 
- ==== Bug
- 
- Following on from previous similar package update requests @ LP:
- #2084496, LP: #2073161, LP: #2064580 LP: #2020762 and LP: #1996735, this
- bug is a request to update the google-osconfig-agent package to the new
- upstream version `20250328.00` @
- https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/osconfig/releases/tag/20250328.00
- 
- This package has an SRU exception @
- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#google-osconfig-agent which
- includes an ageing exception detailed @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/google-
- osconfig-agent-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.
- 
- We will also re-validate that this new version does not have the
- regression introduced by 20250107.00-0ubuntu1 (LP: #2096657, not SRU-ed)
- 
- If all the testing indicates that the new package is acceptable,
- verification can be considered done.
- 
- [Vendored Dependencies]
- 
- TBC
- 
- [Where Problems Could Occur]
- 
- There are many upstream changes in `20250328.00-ubuntu1` vs.
- `20240926.03-ubuntu1`; however 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`
- 
- We will also re-validate that this new version does not have the
- regression introduced by 20250107.00-0ubuntu1 (LP: #2096762, not SRU-ed)
- 
- [Other Information]
- 
- This bug is used for tracking of releasing the new upstream version for
- all supported series, as per the approved policy mentioned in the
- following MRE:
- 
- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/google-osconfig-agent-Updates
- 
- This package is only used for AMD64 and ARM64 but it is build for all
- available architectures.
