[Bug 1786229] Re: SRU 1.4 tracking bug

[Łukasz Zemczak]

Hey Brian! As mentioned on IRC, the amd64 ubuntu-image boot test failure
is something that's been around but started popping up more frequently
recently. The test was generally flaky but now it got worse. If you
check the recent failures for this arch [1], you'll see that it also
failed with the old ubuntu-image 1.3 version as well (for snapcraft). In
theory it should pass after a few runs, but it's failing more than
passing recently, so one/two re-runs doesn't even cut it.

Anyway, it doesn't seem to be related to u-i 1.4. I'll fill in a bug to
investigate what changed in the world that the machine takes longer to
appear.

Status in ubuntu-image source package in Bionic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  New SRU tracking bug (with exception) for ubuntu-image 1.4 in Bionic
  and Xenial.

  See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuImageUpdates

  [Impact]

  ubuntu-image 1.4 fixes some bugs and pay down some technical debt. It
  includes a new cross-building support for classic images, fixes some
  of the autopkgtest issues and adds support for new gadget.yaml stanza.

  [Test Case]

  Create an image using the official amd64 model assertion. Ensure that
  the resulting image boots to 'press enter to configure' phase. Create
  an ubuntu-cpc project classic image using a modified amd64 gadget tree
  [1] and make sure it boots.

  [Regression Potential]

  * ubuntu-image may not produce a bootable image
