Sounds like there's nothing for cloud-init here; thanks all!

Title:
  Cubic appends characters to /etc/os-release and /etc/lsb-release
  breaking the new automated installation method for Ubuntu

Status in cloud-init:
  Won't Fix
Status in Cubic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  During the automated installation of an iso, if cloud-init uses the
  DataSourceNoCloud, then it will check for block devices and read the
  /etc/os-release and /etc/lsb-release files, parsing them for
  distribution specific information. However, Cubic appends its own
  information onto the PRETTY_NAME and DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION lines for
  those two files, causing cloud-init to break, and any automated
  provisioning to fail. This can be fixed in cloud-init by using proper
  os.path.join, or os.sep, etc., but this is unlikely to happen soon.
  Cubic should provided better documentation about any cute characters
  it writes into the distribution.
