Public bug reported:

[description]
While using a 16.04 (Xenial) lxd cloud image, trying to create random seed data with a command does not get put into a specified file.

[cloud-config]
#cloud-config
random_seed:
  command: ["cat", "/proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid"]
  command_required: true
  file: /root/seed

[steps to reproduce]
Image used: b9cba741ef62 ubuntu 16.04 LTS amd64 (release) (20161115)
cloud-init: 0.7.8-1-g3705bb5-0ubuntu1~16.04.3

lxc init ubuntu:xenial/amd64 xenial
lxc config set xenial user.user-data - < cloud-config.yaml
lxc start xenial

[actual result]
There is no file called /root/seed and no error messages even though the command is marked as required.

[expected result]
I would have expected the file /root/seed to exist with a uuid in it.
