Bug Description
The Eucalyptus installer work for Karmic is not quite complete. In particular, it's missing the following pieces:
* 'euca_conf --discover-nodes', an extension to discover Eucalyptus nodes on the local network and offer them for addition to the cluster. The backend support for this (Avahi advertisements of nodes) is already in place; we just need to write the script changes.
* The Eucalyptus cluster controller almost certainly needs a couple more debconf questions to make sure it's set up correctly out of the box. (I don't know the details and am relying on the server team to let me know what else needs to be asked.)
I think both of these are very non-invasive: --discover-nodes will only be used if you ask for it, and the debconf questions will only be asked at initial installation time. Steve suggested I file a feature freeze exception request anyway, though.
