** Description changed: + ## FFe + + I need to request a Feature Freeze Exception to update `google-guest- + agent` in Stonking please + + The changes are entirely confined to the Google Compute Engine (GCE) guest environment as the pkg is only installed on GCE images. Google are keen to have this land ASAP as it's a prerequisite to some key/high visibility product releases. Their preferred availability date is 16 September but we (CPC) know that timeline is almost definitely not going to happen (but we'll still try our best to land it as fast as safely possible). + The specific set of upstream changes was only communicated to us on 20 August, which unfortunately left no buffer before the feature freeze + + ## Bug + Following on from similar package update requests @ LP: #2113792, LP: #2096765, LP: #2084498, LP: #2073163 and LP: #2040945, this bug is a request to update the google-guest-agent package to the upstream version `20260819.00` @ https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/guest- agent/releases/tag/20260819.00 (and https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/google-guest- agent/releases/tag/20260819.00 now as well) We are also now vendoring a new upstream plugin manager source (confusingly named `google-guest-agent` in github [0]) using a secondary orig tar. We build these plugin manager binaries from the vendored tree *during* the pkg build so LP doesn't need network access (which would fail anyway). Also now set `GOTOOLCHAIN=local` and explicit `GOCACHE`/`GOTMPDIR` paths in `d/rules` This package has an SRU exception @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#google-guest-agent including an ageing exception detailed @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/google- guest-agent-Updates [Impact] This package is provided by Google for installation within guests that run on Google Compute Engine. It is part of a collection of tools and daemons, 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 this package to more recent upstream releases is required within all Ubuntu releases, so they continue to function properly in the GCP environment. [Test Case] When a new version of this package is uploaded to -proposed, the following will happen: * an image based on -proposed will be built for GCE and published to the ubuntu-os-cloud-image-proposed project * the CPC team will run internal validations (CTF) and Google's upstream test suite `cloud-image-tests` (CIT) * 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 own internal image validation. If all the testing indicates that the new package is acceptable, verification can be considered done.

) + ) ``` [Where Problems Could Occur] There are _a lot_ of upstream changes between `20260819.00` vs. `20250506.01-0ubuntu3` (55 commits, 50 file changes, not to mention the inclusion of the new vendored .tar.gz...) However between CIT [1] (which is run for validation by CPC _and_ Google) and CPC's own internal test harness (CTF), there is confidence that most if not all "edge cases" and/or obvious regressions concerns can be dismissed before the new version lands in `-updates`. There are also brand new test suites within CIT that address the functionality introduced by the new upstream code (`compatmanager` and `pluginmanager`). Also the package is not seeded and we also vendor all the golang dependencies. [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/google-guest-agent-Updates This package is only used on AMD64 and ARM64 but is built for all available architectures.
