** Description changed: + [Impact] + + compute-image-packages is provided by Google for installation within + guests that run on Google Compute Engine. It is a collection of tools + and daemons, packaged as gce-compute-image-packages, that ensure that + the Ubuntu images published to GCE run properly on their platform. + + Cloud platforms evolve at a rate that can't be handled in six-month + increments, and they will often develop features that they would like to + be available to customers who don't want to upgrade from earlier Ubuntu + releases. As such, updating gce-compute-image-packages to more recent + upstream releases is required within all Ubuntu releases, so they + continue to function properly in their environment. + + [Test Case] + + When a new version of gce-compute-image-packages is uploaded to + -proposed, the following will be done: + + * an image based on -proposed will be built for GCE and published to the ubuntu-os-cloud-devel project + * the CPC team will write new automated tests to cover new testable functionality (if any) in the new package + * the automated testing that the CPC team normally runs against GCE images before they are published will be run against the -proposed image + * the GCE team will be asked to validate that the new package addresses the issues it is expected to address, and that the image passes their internal image validation. + + If all the testing indicates that the image containing the new package + is acceptable, verification will be considered to be done. + + [Other Information] + This bug is used for tracking of releasing the new upstream version for all supported series, as per the approved policy mentioned in the following MRE: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/gce-compute-image-packages-Updates
