Following on from previous similar package update requests @ LP: #2040945, LP: #2018272 and LP: #1959392, this bug is a request to update the google-guest-agent package to the upstream version `20240701.00` @ https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/guest-agent/releases/tag/20240701.00
This package has an SRU exception @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#google-guest-agent including an ageing exception detailed @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/google-guest-agent-Updates
[Impact]
This package is provided by Google for installation within guests that run on Google Compute Engine. It is part of a collection of tools and daemons, that ensure that the Ubuntu images published to GCE run properly on their platform.
Cloud platforms evolve at a rate that can't be handled in six-month increments, and they will often develop features that they would like to be available to customers who don't want to upgrade from earlier Ubuntu releases. As such, updating this package to more recent upstream releases is required within all Ubuntu releases, so they continue to function properly in their environment.
[Test Case]
When a new version of this package is uploaded to -proposed, the following will happen:
* an image based on -proposed will be built for GCE and published to the ubuntu-os-cloud-devel project
* the GCE team will be asked to validate that the new package addresses the issues it is expected to address, and that the image passes their internal image validation.
If all the testing indicates that the image containing the new package is acceptable, verification will be considered to be done.
[Vendored Dependency]
## Add notes here Chlo ##
[Where Problems Could Occur]
There are many upstream changes in `20240701.00-0ubuntu1` vs. `20240213.00-0ubuntu4`; however between the guest-test-infra suite [0] (which is run for validation by CPC _and_ Google) and CPC's own internal test harness (CTF), there is confidence that most if not all "edge cases" and/or obvious regressions concerns can be dismissed before the new version lands in `-updates`
[Other Information]
This bug is used for tracking of releasing the new upstream version for all supported series, as per the approved policy mentioned in the following MRE:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/google-guest-agent-Updates
The updated package is not built for armhf and riscv64 due to upstream regressions but the package is not used on those architectures thus please release the SRU without the armhf and risc64 binaries.
The package does not build for powerpc on Xenial, but this is OK since it is not used on powerpc either.
