Package: cloud-init Version: 22.4.2-1 Severity: important X-Debbugs-Cc: em...@cs-ware.de
Dear Maintainer, starting with the shipped version in Debian 12 the write_files feature with defer option does not work any more. Example: #cloud-config locale: de_DE.UTF-8 timezone: Europe/Berlin package_update: true # Implied with `package_upgrade: true` package_upgrade: true packages: ['joe','mariadb-server','aptitude','psmisc','bzip2','fail2ban','postfix','apticron','nagios-nrpe-server','monitoring-plugins','libmariadb3','borgbackup','logwatch'] write_files: - content: | [mysqldump] max_allowed_packet = 60M path: /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/51-dump.cnf defer: true The file /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/51-dump.cnf is not created any more (compared to Debian 11; 20.4.1-2+deb11) by cloud-init. Nothing can be seen in the logs. This significantly limits how cloud-init can be used to set up new machines. Providing an updated version as backport etc. does not help as cloud-init is particularly used to set up a machine from a plain base image. It would be important to get a fix in the next point release. -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.0 APT prefers stable-security APT policy: (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-10-amd64 (SMP w/3 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages cloud-init depends on: ii eject 2.38.1-5+b1 ii fdisk 2.38.1-5+b1 ii gdisk 1.0.9-2.1 ii isc-dhcp-client 4.4.3-P1-2 ii locales 2.36-9 ii lsb-release 12.0-1 ii procps 2:4.0.2-3 ii python3 3.11.2-1+b1 ii python3-configobj 5.0.8-1 ii python3-jinja2 3.1.2-1 ii python3-jsonpatch 1.32-2 ii python3-jsonschema 4.10.3-1 ii python3-netifaces 0.11.0-2+b1 ii python3-oauthlib 3.2.2-1 ii python3-requests 2.28.1+dfsg-1 ii python3-serial 3.5-1.1 ii python3-yaml 6.0-3+b2 ii sysvinit-utils [lsb-base] 3.06-4 ii util-linux 2.38.1-5+b1 Versions of packages cloud-init recommends: ii cloud-guest-utils 0.33-1 ii eatmydata 130-2 ii sudo 1.9.13p3-1 Versions of packages cloud-init suggests: ii btrfs-progs 6.2-1 ii e2fsprogs 1.47.0-2 ii xfsprogs 6.1.0-1 -- no debconf information
