With the removal of snap-tool failures are seen in image builds that do
not have the 'core' snap included by the seed. This is the case for the
minimized subproject of the ubuntu-cpc project where lxd/core is removed.
In that subproject, any binary hook which adds a snap that is based
on 'core' will not add 'core' and fail 'snap debug validate-seed'.
snap-tool included the following logic in the 'snap-tool info' when
determining snap bases:
# Have "base" initialized to something meaningful.
if self.is_core_snap():
snap_data["snap"]["base"] = ""
elif snap_data["snap"].get("base") is None:
snap_data["snap"]["base"] = "core"
The snap store does not return a base if the base is core which makes
this necessary. This patch looks for the base in 'snap info' output
and if none is found (and the snap is not snapd or core) it assumes the
base is 'core' and installs it. This restores the behavior lost in the
migration from snap-tool to snap cli.
snap-tool was added to support a deprecate cohort-key feature of the snap store.
Recent changes in snap assertions have added additional fields which snap-tool
is not retrieving. This resulted in snap install failures on first boot.
This patch removes snap-tool and returns to using the snap cli. This ensures
snap downloads will function without odd incompatibilities.
- drop ds-identify policy, not needed with improved cloud config
- drop disabling network, doesn't work with ip=
- fixup setting up the INSTALLER_ROOT mountpoint
- enable cloud-init
- make cloud-init handle the default/baked in networking configuration
- install and enable openssh-server for the installation only
- provide cloud.cfg that generates random installer user password
- disable subiquity on sclp_line0 line based console
Instead of injecting an empty resolv.conf with an includes.chroot, we'll
inject it in late with a hook. The empty resolv.conf breaks DNS early in
the build, and causes some binary hooks to fail.
Subiquity images mount /usr/lib/modules from a squashfs, which systemd
tries to unmount on shutdown, whilst they are still being in use. As
systemd-udevd kmod built-in's libkmod has modules.* files
memorymapped. This produces an warning on shutdown, flooding the
screen with messages as systemd switches to a more verbose
output. Specify LazyUnmount=yes on that mount, such that unmount call
succeeds without flooding the shutdown log.
When we encounter a failure in 'lb binary' the launchpad builders can
only surface the build output from stdout. If the binary hook failure
implicates the archive we can not determine fault without the apt
proxy log. This patch will dump the proxy log to stdout to aid in
debugging these failures.
