** Description changed:
- the newly added cloud-init apport support shows a list of cloud
- providers and asks the user to select one. There are currently 18
- options. For any option > 10, apport will just take the '1' that is
- typed as the answer.
+ === Begin SRU Template ===
+ [Impact]
+ Packages which provide apport integration with more than 9 options in a choice will not be able to select options numbered >= 10 on the commandline using 'ubuntu-bug <package-name>'
+
+
+ [Test Case]
+ Overview:
+ 1. Update to proposed versions of cloud-init v. 17.1 and apport v. <X>
+ 2. Run 'ubuntu-bug cloud-init' attempt to report a bug on a cloud choice greater than 9
+ 3. View report and make sure the proper cloud is reported
+
+
+ Script:
+ if [ ! -f './lxc-proposed-snapshot' ]; then
+ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cloud-init/ubuntu-sru/master/bin/lxc-proposed-snapshot;
+ chmod 755 lxc-proposed-snapshot;
+ fi
+
+ for release in xenial artful; do
+ ref=$release-proposed;
+ echo "$release START --------------";
+ lxc-proposed-snapshot --proposed --publish $release $ref;
+ lxc init $ref test-$release;
+ lxc start test-$release;
+ lxc exec test-$release -- apt install apport;
+ lxc exec test-$release -- dpkg-query --show apport;
+ lxc exec test-$release -- ubuntu-bug cloud-init;
+ done
+
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Minimal. This bug only affects packages with >9 bug filing options for a given choice. Worst case, is bugs filed would incorrectly represent option 1 of a selection instead of option 1X.

It should obviously wait for more than one character or a carriage
return.
