Package: cloud-init
Version: 0.6.3-2
Severity: minor
Hi,
I was looking at getting cloud-init on some squeeze machines and found that you
have prepared an experimental package, thanks for that!
However, the dependencies are quite difficult to massage into squeeze. A
couple questions about these:
.. ifupdown (>= 0.6.10ubuntu5) - this is an ubuntu only version, the squeeze
version is 0.6.10, can the debian package depend on this version, or does
it actually need to be a newer one?
.. python (>= 2.6.6-7~) - squeeze has 2.6.6-3+squeeze7, i wonder if this
dependency is also just an ubuntu one, and this could be set to the
debian squeeze version?
.. the build-depends on cdbs >= 0.4.90~ was mentioned in the changelog,
can you give a reason why that bump was needed (squeeze has 0.4.89)
thanks!

Hi,
I looked at Ubuntu's source package and found the commit which introduced
the dependance on ifupdown (>= 0.6.10ubuntu5).
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/quantal/cloud-init/quantal/revision/132.1.6
Here is the part that looks relevant:
* support multiple staticly configured network devices, as long as
all of them come up early (LP: #810044)
I do not know if the corresponding changes in ifupdown 0.6.10ubuntu5 have been
merged in Debian.
Alltogether, I would prefer not to change the dependancies of cloud-init, so I
am closing that bug. This said, it looks like a backport, while exposing the
package to the bugs that were fixed later in ifupdown and python, may work in
some cases.
Does cloud-init work well with Squeeze's upstart package ?
Have a nice day,
