Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Hi! Thank you for filing a bug and contributing to Ubuntu.

We're able to partially confirm this bug by simply having cloud-init installed on our system and running `ubuntu-bug libc6`, which will start off by printing 'cloud-init run data not found on system. Unable to add cloud-specific data.' on stderr.

However, this didn't prevent us from filing bugs, either on a GUI environment or in a terminal-only chroot. Could you give us more details about the cases where it prevented you from filing a bug?

@ Simon #3

Im also able to file bugs, with that cloud-init warning as described by you

only when the package is 'linux' apport seems to abort saying its not a valid package

but i suspect this is due another bug; https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2018128
