Noble+ no longer seed LXD snap so this does not need to be installed when running unminimize

[Philip Roche]

The LXD snap is no longer seeded in non minimal images since Noble+ so the unminimize logic related to LXD snap @ https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unminimize/tree/unminimize?h=applied/ubuntu/noble#n108 is no longer required.

lxd-installer can remain installed.

This applies for Noble+ so requires SRU back to Noble

[ Impact ]

Attempting to install LXD snap on unminimize when this is no longer required.

[ Test Plan ]

 * Build cloud minimal image and confirm unminimize does not install LXD snap

[ Where problems could occur ]

 * If LXD snap continues to be installed

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package unminimize - 0.3

---------------
unminimize (0.3) oracular; urgency=medium

  * No longer install LXD snap in unminimize script. (LP: #2066903)

Hello Philip, or anyone else affected,

Accepted unminimize into noble-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unminimize/0.2.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-noble to verification-done-noble. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-noble. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Hello,

I've tested an image built via ubuntu-bartender and using livecd-rootfs from proposed -

$ ubuntu-bartender --build-provider gce --hook-extras-dir "$(pwd)/cpc_packaging.extra" --livecd-rootfs-branch ubuntu/noble -- --series noble --project ubuntu-cpc --image-target qcow2 --subproject minimized

I ran unminimize on that and could confirm that there's no LXD snap is being installed as a part of the script.

Therefore, this is working as intended.

There was nothing in the bug test plan or description saying it would require livecd-rootfs from proposed. I checked what version that would be, and at least today it's also in updates:

 livecd-rootfs | 24.04.69 | noble | source
 livecd-rootfs | 24.04.74 | noble-proposed | source
 livecd-rootfs | 24.04.74 | noble-updates | source

Publication date of livecd-rootfs to noble-updates according to LP is today, just 5h ago, and your comment is from August 2nd, so what you used is in updates already, making this point moot. But you see the implications of not making it clear what version was used? :)
