Comment 0 for bug 1643751

while testing cloud-init in -proposed for bug 1629797
I found that the changes to cloud-init create a dependency loop for
 google-startup-scripts.service"

I'll attach journalctl output.

I think related is
 https://code.launchpad.net/~philroche/ubuntu/+source/gce-compute-image-packages/+git/gce-compute-image-packages/+merge/311153

The change here seems to me to resolve the issue, and should be safe with new or older cloud-init as cloud-init.target is present everywhere.
