Then access the file via apache http but not localhost (that would work) [Regression Potential] * The change is local to the libcurl usage of qemu, so that could be affected. But then this is what has been found to not work here, so I'd expect not too much trouble. But if so then in the curl usage (which means disks on http) [Other Info] * n/a --- The "qemu-img check" function is failing on remote (HTTP-hosted) images, beginning with Ubuntu 19.10 (qemu-utils version 1:4.0+dfsg- 0ubuntu9). With previous versions, through Ubuntu 19.04/qemu-utils version 1:3.1+dfsg-2ubuntu3.5, the following worked: $ /usr/bin/qemu-img check http://10.193.37.117/cloud/eoan-server-cloudimg-amd64.img No errors were found on the image. 19778/36032 = 54.89% allocated, 90.34% fragmented, 89.90% compressed clusters Image end offset: 514064384 The 10.193.37.117 server holds an Apache server that hosts the cloud images on a LAN. Beginning with Ubuntu 19.10/qemu-utils 1:4.0+dfsg- 0ubuntu9, the same command never returns. (I've left it for up to an hour with no change.) I'm able to wget the image from the same server and installation on which qemu-img check fails. I've tried several .img files on the server, ranging from Bionic to Eoan, with the same results with all of them.
