** Description changed:

  [SRU Justification]
  Ubuntu Cloud Images are inconsistent with desktop and bare-metal server 
installations since backports are not enabled. This is effected via cloud-init 
that uses a template to select an in-cloud archive.
  
  [FIX] Include the Ubuntu backports in the template.
  
  [REGRESION] The potential for regression is low. However, all users will
  experience slower fetch times on apt-get updates especially on slower or
  high latency networks.
  
  [TEST]
  1. Build image from -proposed
  2. Boot up image
  3. Confirm that "sudo apt-get update" pulls in backports.
  
  Backports are currently not enabled in the cloud-init template. This is
  needed in order to get the backport kernels on cloud images.
