Status in cloud-init:

Bug description:
  Seeing the following:

  Jul 14 15:42:38 cent6-example [CLOUDINIT] util.py[DEBUG]: Failed to
  update the hostname to cent6-example.cloud.phx3.gdg

  $ rpm -qa | grep configobj
  python-configobj-4.6.0-3.el6.noarch

  This might be fixed in a newer configobj (probably is) but just wanted
  to note this here.
