2.9: cannot deploy charm nor add-machine with centos8

[Heather Lanigan]

Centos8 machines get stuck in pending. Juju can create them, however the agents never get installed. This does not happen with centos7.

ami-0d6e9a57f6259ba3a does have cloud-init in the image.

$ juju metadata add-image --series centos8 ami-0d6e9a57f6259ba3a
$ juju deploy ./tests/suites/deploy/charms/centos-dummy-sink --series centos8 --constraints root-disk=10G

$ juju add-machine --series centos8 --constraints root-disk=10G <-- same result as above.

$ juju add-machine ssh:centos@x.x.x.x <-- hangs
