[Bug 1575572] Re: apache2 fails to start if installed via cloud config (on Xenial)

[Adam Conrad]

Hello Dan, or anyone else affected,

Accepted init-system-helpers into xenial-proposed. The package will
build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/init-
system-helpers/1.29ubuntu2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed
repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Bug description:
  SRU TEST CASE:

  Using the following cloud config, apache2 will fail to start on
  installation on Xenial:

  #cloud-config
  packages:
  - apache2

  See for example:

  $ gcloud compute instances create xenial-$(date +%y%m%d-%H%M) --image ubuntu-1604-xenial-v20160420c --image-project ubuntu-os-cloud --metadata-from-file user-data=cloud-config
  NAME                ZONE            MACHINE_TYPE   PREEMPTIBLE  INTERNAL_IP  EXTERNAL_IP    STATUS
  xenial-160427-1050  europe-west1-d  n1-standard-1               10.240.0.7   104.155.86.94  RUNNING

  $ ssh ubuntu at 104.155.86.94 systemctl status apache2.service
  ● apache2.service - LSB: Apache2 web server
     Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/apache2; bad; vendor preset: enabled)
    Drop-In: /lib/systemd/system/apache2.service.d
             └─apache2-systemd.conf
     Active: inactive (dead)
       Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8)

  With the fixed init-system-helpers, apache2.service (or any other
  service you install via "packages:") should start correctly.
