User-configurable files are not installed in /etc

[Julian Edwards]

All of the templates for power and pxe are installed in /usr. They should be in /etc so that they don't get silently overwritten on upgrades.

[Andres Rodriguez (andreserl)]

So as discussed with Julian, this requires upstream support before we can install the files in the correct locations via packaging.

[Julian Edwards (julian-edwards)]

Yep - some of the templates support it (POWER_TEMPLATES_DIR) but not all. We need to extend the configuration of location to the others.

This bug was fixed in the package maas - 1.4+bzr1505+dfsg-0ubuntu1

---------------
maas (1.4+bzr1505+dfsg-0ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low

  * New upstream release

  [ Steve Langasek ]
  * Add missing dependency on iproute to maas-region-controller, for use of
    /sbin/ip in postinst.

  [ Julian Edwards ]
  * debian/maas-dhcp.maas-dhcp-server.upstart:
    - Detect 12.04 as the host OS and install with correct permissions. This
      allows the same packaging to be used in the 12.04 backport.

  [ Andres Rodriguez ]
  * Update packaging to support FPI:
    - debian/control: Depends on apache2 for maas-cluster-controller.
    - debian/maas-cluster-controller.install: Install http config file.
    - debian/maas-cluster-controller.{postinst,postrm}: Handle symlink creation
      and deletion.
  * debian/maas-region-controller.install: Install preseeds in
    etc/maas/preseeds. (LP: #1073463)

  [ Jeroen Vermeulen ]
  * In the source tree, /etc/maas/pserv.yaml has moved from etc/ to etc/maas/.
  * Install templates into /etc/maas/templates/.
