Comment 5 for bug 1612293

MAAS images are no different than Ubuntu cloud images. In essence, they are the same exact thing. That said, MAAS can uses one of two streams, the "released" streams or the "daily" streams. The "daily" streams is where new MAAS images get updated with latest package updates.

If you are using releases, then you don't have the latest images with the latest packages.

If you are using daily, then you should have the latest images with latest packages.

That said, MAAS also auto-imports new images, if it is configured to do so. By default, it should be importing new available images, but if you are using the 'releases' stream, then you wont have new images.

That said, you need to:

1. Ensure you are using the daily streams to get images with the latest updated packages.
2. Ensure Automatic image import is enabled.
