[Bug 1770650] Re: Update google compute-image-packages to 20180510

[Balint Reczey]

** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  compute-image-packages is provided by Google for installation within
  guests that run on Google Compute Engine. It is a collection of tools
  and daemons, packaged as gce-compute-image-packages, that ensure that
  the Ubuntu images published to GCE run properly on their platform.
  
  Cloud platforms evolve at a rate that can't be handled in six-month
  increments, and they will often develop features that they would like to
  be available to customers who don't want to upgrade from earlier Ubuntu
  releases. As such, updating gce-compute-image-packages to more recent
  upstream releases is required within all Ubuntu releases, so they
  continue to function properly in their environment.
  
  With this release we also add a new binary package to the suite -
  google-compute-engine-oslogin which is for a future feature of using OS
  Login on GCE VM instances.
  
+ In the SRU for Trusty the maintainer scripts removed manual handling of
+ systemd services because systemd can be present on Trusty systemd due to
+ recent changes.
+ 
+ In the Trusty SRU the maintainer scripts are also changed to
+ start/restart the shipped upstart jobs and also running
+ google_instance_setup.
+ 
  [Test Case]
  
  When a new version of gce-compute-image-packages is uploaded to
  -proposed, the following will be done:
  
-  * an image based on -proposed will be built for GCE and published to the ubuntu-os-cloud-devel project
-  * the CPC team will write new automated tests to cover new testable functionality (if any) in the new package
-  * the automated testing that the CPC team normally runs against GCE images before they are published will be run against the -proposed image
-  * the GCE team will be asked to validate that the new package addresses the issues it is expected to address, and that the image passes their internal image validation.
+  * an image based on -proposed will be built for GCE and published to the ubuntu-os-cloud-devel project
+  * the CPC team will write new automated tests to cover new testable functionality (if any) in the new package
+  * the automated testing that the CPC team normally runs against GCE images before they are published will be run against the -proposed image
+  * the GCE team will be asked to validate that the new package addresses the issues it is expected to address, and that the image passes their internal image validation.
  
  If all the testing indicates that the image containing the new package
  is acceptable, verification will be considered to be done.
