Engineering Team, which is subscribed to cloud-init. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1785225 Title: package-update-upgrade-install does not update when run with --frequency=always Status in cloud-init: Expired Bug description: 1. The following stanzas in /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg: ``` cloud_final_modules: # always update+upgrade on boot - [package-update-upgrade-install, always] packages: # will run apt-update - git package_update: true package_upgrade: true package_reboot_if_required: true ``` 2. Result in the following log entry at boot-time: ``` helpers.py[DEBUG]: update-sources already ran (freq=once-per-instance) ``` 3. Running the module manually with: ``` sudo cloud-init single --name package-update-upgrade-install --frequency always ``` ... also fails to call `apt-get update` 4. Google gives no results. - No similar bugs visible here. - No additional configuration keys shown in <https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/modules.html#package-update-upgrade-install>. - No relevant keys given in <https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/modules.html#apt-configure>. - Nowhere is "update-sources" mentioned. 5. Attempted guess at "update-sources" fails: ``` sudo cloud-init single --name update-sources --frequency always ``` 6. Expected behavior is that `apt-get update` is executed before `apt-get install` every time the machine is booted. On my system the install looks like: ``` ['eatmydata', 'apt-get', '--option=Dpkg::Options::=--force-confold', '--option=Dpkg::options::=--force-unsafe-io', '--assume-yes', '--quiet', 'install', 'git'] ``` 7. Alternate behavior would be a way to explicitly request that an update be performed. This was attempted/guessed-at with: ``` cloud_config_modules: - [apt-configure, always] ``` But did not obtain an update. There seem to be no other applicable modules listed in <https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/modules.html#> 8.
