Hi CTAC, this package is kind of deprecated and not changed at all since Xenial. I have taken a task to check in detail if this package shall get some bigger attention or if we actually want to remove it (better than being out in a semi-broken way).
For now I'd ask you if you think you could work with uvtool-libvirt which is much more used and maintained recently. To get a zesty VM like in your case you'd do: # get a daily build of the cloud image, you can choose others of course uvt-simplestreams-libvirt --source http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/daily arch=amd64 label=daily release=zesty # spawn a VM uvt-kvm create zesty-test release=zesty arch=amd64 label=daily It is faster due to the cloud image usage, and more similar to e.g. all the cloud instances out there. Especially if you use it multiple times it is very efficient (since usually the sync is the only slow part depending on your connection). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1703822 Title: ubuntu-vm-builder doesn't know Zesty Zapus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vm-builder/+bug/1703822/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
