Public bug reported:
Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Release: 10.04

Hi,
I can't generate EC2 images with vmbuilder. I'm using a command like
this:
sudo vmbuilder xen ubuntu --suite=lucid --ec2 \
--ec2-cert=.ec2/cert-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.pem \
--ec2-key=.ec2/pk-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.pem \
--ec2-access-key=WHATEVER \
--ec2-secret-key=WHATEVER \
--ec2-user=424242424242 --ec2-bucket=anyrandombucket --ec2-prefix=test \
--ec2-version='first' \
--firstboot=/usr/share/doc/python-vm-builder-ec2/examples/ec2-firstboot.sh \
--part=/usr/share/doc/python-vm-builder-ec2/examples/ec2-i386-part-file.txt \
--debug
Actually, I was following this howto:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EC2Vmbuilder
When I run vmbuilder with those flags, I just get this message:
Usage: vmbuilder hypervisor distro [options]
vmbuilder: error: no such option: --ec2
So, I can not build images for Amazon EC2.
I inspected /usr/share/pyshared/VMBuilder/plugins/ec2/__init__.py and I found
at the last line of that file this:
#register_plugin(EC2)
I uncommented that line and it didn't work.
Also I tried using register_hypervisor_plugin(EC2), but it didn't work.
If I'm missing something obvious here, just let me know.
In fact, what I'm trying to do is just build an EC2 image like the ones
described in
http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/lucid/release/
It would be nice to know how were generated the Ubuntu official images available
in Amazon EC2.
Regards,
