Public bug reported: Running autopkgtest-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud on a fresh install (as of 5.37ubuntu3 on noble) will download the requested release image before trying to use the required packages to build it such as genisoimage and qemu-utils.
If these packages are not present in the system the process will fail here, after downloading the iso and will require a re-download after installing the required packages. It should check that the necessary packages are installed before spending time downloading the image. ** Affects: autopkgtest (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/2073938 Title: autopkgtest-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud does not require dependencies to start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/autopkgtest/+bug/2073938/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
