initial fix has been merged into Hirsute, and is currently in proposed. I did the following test using the deb src of release 2.697 from proposed (now superseded by 2.698)
1. downloaded dev source 2. unpacked 3. used ubuntu-oldfashioned/scripts/ubuntu-bartender to run a hirsute build ``` ./ubuntu-bartender --livecd-rootfs-dir /home/jchittum/dev01/troubleshooting/various-rootfs/2.697/livecd-rootfs/ --build-provider multipass -- --series hirsute --project ubuntu-cpc --image-target vmdk ``` 4. Verified via the log the new descriptor was written. The build log now prints the descriptor files. copied below 5. Verified ova and vmdk booted using Virtualbox. Once the package moves from proposed to updates, we'll be able to produce a test hirsute image to verify the change, then work on SRUing the changes to all suites. build log below: + echo 'Cat'\''ing original descriptor to console for debugging.'
