[Bug 1565467] Re: twistd3 crashed with PermissionError in touch(): [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/etc/maas/rackd.conf'

[Bryan Quigley]

Create a xenial image and install maas.  This appears to affect both
with the PPA and without.

Create a quick xenial image:
uvt-simplestreams-libvirt sync  release=xenial arch=amd64
uvt-kvm create maas release=xenial
uvt-kvm wait maas
uvt-kvm ssh maas --insecure

Then in VM:
    1  sudo apt update
    2  sudo apt upgrade
    3  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:maas/next
    4  sudo apt update
    5  sudo apt-get install maas

** Information type changed from Private to Public

** Also affects: maas
