I'm providing a PPA containing a full v4.6.0 fence_aws backport to
Ubuntu Focal fence-agents package at:

https://launchpad.net/~rafaeldtinoco/+archive/ubuntu/lp1894323-focal

with source at:

https://code.launchpad.net/~rafaeldtinoco/ubuntu/+source/fence-
agents/+git/fence-agents/+ref/lp1894323-focal-v4.6.0-backport/

----

Because of the nature of fence-agents, where they're practically
isolated scripts in the form of a metadata <-> python script pair, I
think it would be okay to SRU a particular agent to the latest Ubuntu
version. All regression risk is confined to the agent itself and it
would be easy to fix/revert if ever needed (without jeopardizing those
not relying in the agent).

For example, Groovy has fence-agents v4.6.0... containing all the
patches needed for a good fence_aws support. I'm backporting all fixes
from Groovy to Focal in this PPA.

Focal had only the initial fence_aws patch, but missing all the fixes
from v4.5.2 to v4.6.0. Bionic is missing all commits, including the
fence_aws agent.

I'm going to backport everything - the agent and fixes - to Bionic.. but
it would be weird to have a more updated agent in Bionic (since it does
not have the agent, it would be able to have the agent introduction with
all fixes) than in Focal (that is why this SRU tries to keep both, Focal
and Bionic, in the same codelevel for fence_aws).
