Hey folks, I believe that this has been fixed in cloud-init 20.3
(specifically this commit: https://github.com/canonical/cloud-
init/commit/0755cff078d5931e1d8e151bdcb84afb92bc0f02) so I'm going to
move this to Fix Released.
If you are seeing this error on an earlier version of cloud-init, it
generally indicates that cloud-init failed on a _previous_ boot (because
before that fix, a failed boot meant it would incorrectly create a
directory where a symlink should have been, leading to the
`IsADirectoryError` when the old not-actually-a-symlink is `rm`d on
subsequent boots). If you can identify the cause of this earlier
failure, please feel free to file a bug for it!
Thanks,
Dan
