cloud-init 0.6.3-0ubuntu1.14 appears to depend on python-serial (due to the backported cloudsigma support patch), but this dependency is not specified in the package.
I built a machine image via debootstrap and installing the cloud-init package, but upon boot, cloud-init doesn't perform any of the expected actions, and I get this backtrace in /var/log/boot.log:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/cloud-init", line 229, in <module>

mod = __import__("%sDataSource%s" % (pkg, ds_coll))

import serial
ImportError: No module named serial
The fix would appear to be adding python-serial to Depends. |
[Impact]
cloud-init will fail to run on an installation of Ubuntu which doesn't include python-serial. This excludes normal cloud images (as they ship with Landscape, which indirectly depends on it), but custom built images (or more minimal images) will see this.
[Test Case]
Build an image with cloud-init in its default configuration but without another package that depends on python-serial. cloud-init should run successfully on boot.
[Regression Potential]
None; we are just adding a dependency which exists in the archive for all versions and which is installed already in most deployments.
