** Description changed:
[Impact]: The cloud-init version Precise uses the wrong is_true test
from util instead of futil for the SmartOS datasource. If a user sends
over a user-script or user-data, the instance will be unaccessable due
to a stack trace. This means that user-data or user-scripts are fatal to
the instance as the user will be unable to access system using SmartOS
as the virtualization platform.
+
+ This only affects 12.04. futil is a backport of utilities in future
+ version. util.is_true is valid for 12.10 and later. As result, there is
+ no fix needed for quantal and later.
[Test Case]:
1. Create a simple user-data script
2. Boot up 12.04 in SmartOS
3. Update the instance meta-data with user-script
4. delete /var/lib/cloud
5. Run "cloud-init start" and "cloud-init-cfg all"
6. Check /var/log/cloud-init.log for errors
7. Confirm that simple user-data script ran
8. The user-data script should be found in
/var/lib/cloud/instance/user-data.txt
[REGRESSION] None. This change is fixes broken functionality and is a
two line change. This has been tested on SmartOS and confirmed to fix
the problem.
datasource for smartos uses util.is_true instead of futil.is_true, this
causes a stack trace on SmartOS
