Public bug reported: Reviewing the latest SRU for cloud-init, I noticed the following:
def system_is_snappy(): # channel.ini is configparser loadable. # snappy will move to using /etc/system-image/config.d/*.ini # this is certainly not a perfect test, but good enough for now. content = load_file("/etc/system-image/channel.ini", quiet=True) if 'ubuntu-core' in content.lower(): return True if os.path.isdir("/etc/system-image/config.d/"): return True return False This isn't a good test for whether a system is an ubuntu-core system. 'system-image' is historical baggage, and not likely to be present at all in future versions. I'm afraid I don't know a good alternative test offhand, but wanted to log the bug so someone could look into it rather than being caught by surprise when ubuntu-core image contents later change. ** Affects: cloud-init (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1639955 Title: bad test for snappy systems To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+bug/1639955/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
