fixed in upstream commit 02f6c4bb8cef17b3fe04ef4dc1ef199e20aeb4d9
** Description changed: + === Begin SRU Template === + [Impact] + Support for lxd configuration of networking does not work with lxd 2.3+ as + the current path for configuration in cloud-init uses debconf but newer + lxd does not support configuration that way. + + Prior to LXD 2.3, the bridge configuration was done through distro + packaging.

Prior to LXD 2.3, the bridge configuration was done through distro packaging. With 2.3 and higher, this is now done inside LXD itself, so we need to use "lxc network" with 2.3 and higher. All the old code has been thrown out so LXD 2.3 doesn't have any debconf templates and doesn't manage the lxd bridge itself. LXD 2.3 packaging does ship a script which will convert existing users in place, so folks upgrading shouldn't actually notice anything except that /etc/default/lxd-bridge will disappear and they'll need to use "lxc network edit lxdbr0" to configure any extra thing. [Test Case] * Prepare an image with updated cloud-init from proposed. * start instance with user-data like: #cloud-config lxd: bridge: mode: new name: lxdbr1 ipv4_address: 10.5.0.1 ipv4_netmask: 24 ipv4_nat: true * wait for system to boot, check that lxdbr1 is configured as expected. # ip addr show dev lxdbr1 2: lxdbr1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether 2e:f8:cc:5f:57:81 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 10.5.0.1/24 scope global lxdbr1 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 fe80::2cf8:ccff:fe5f:5781/64 scope link valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever [Regression Potential] New codepath is taken based on prsence of /etc/default/lxd-bridge. If that file was present and a newer version of lxd installed, then we would take the wrong path.
