Bug description:
With trusty, /bin/ping relies on having extended attributes and kernel
capabilities to gain the cap_net_raw+p capability. This allows
removing the suid bit.
However, the tarball cloud images do not preserve the extended
attributes, and thus /bin/ping does not work on a system derived from
them.
Summary of problem per package:
* lxc: ubuntu cloud template needs to extract
* download template needs to extract with xattr flags
* server side download creation tools need xattr flags
* [unconfirmed] tarball caches need creation and extraction with xattr flags
* tar: need the '--xattr' and '--acl' flags backported
* maas: uec2roottgz needs to use xattr/acl flags
* curtin: extraction needs to use xattr/acl flags.
* cloud-image-build: needs to create -root.tar.gz with xattr/acl flags
Related Bugs:
* bug 1382632: horizon insecure key file permissions
* bug 1386237: tar strange behavior with --acl and xattr
* bug 1313550: ping broken (xattrs lost in tar extraction)
