rc doesnt start

[Scott Moser]

I launched an instance of ami-9d2089f4 (,ebs/ubuntu-precise-daily-amd64-server-20120725) with the following user-data.

#cloud-config
packages: [ pastebinit, runit ]
runcmd:
   - [sh, -c, 'echo "$(date): runcmd" | tee /root/runcmd.txt']
output: {all: '| tee -a /var/log/cloud-init-output.log'}

The runcmd never happens. This is very reproducible. I'll attach a console log and dmesg (2nd boot) where I did:
 * launched the instance, saw the problem
 * sudo dpkg --purge remove runit
 * sudo rm -Rf /var/lib/cloud
 * edit /etc/grub/menu.list to add '--verbose' to the command line.
 * sudo reboot

Runcmd is run from the 'cloud-final' upstart job that has:
# cloud-final.conf - run "final" jobs
# this runs around traditional "rc.local" time.
# and after all cloud-config jobs are run
description "execute cloud user/final scripts"
start on (stopped rc RUNLEVEL=[2345] and stopped cloud-config)
console output
task
exec cloud-init-cfg all final

the cloud-config job ran as it is what did the package installation. And seems to have finished:
$ sudo status cloud-config
cloud-config stop/waiting
