[ubuntu-cloud] Refreshed UEC Images of 10.10 LTS (Lucid Lynx)

[Scott Moser]

A new release of the Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud Images for stable Ubuntu
release 10.10 LTS (Lucid Lynx) is available at [1].  Images are available
for download or immediate use on EC2 via published AMI ids.

There are a few important updates since the 20100427.1 release [2].
 * linux-image-2.6.32-305-ec2 [3] updated (2.6.32-305.9 -> 2.6.32-308.15)
 * landscape-client [4] updated
   (1.5.0.1-0ubuntu0.10.04.0 -> 1.5.4-0ubuntu0.10.04.0)
 * cloud-init [5] updated (0.5.10-0ubuntu1 -> 0.5.10-0ubuntu1.2)

If you are using a previous release, you should update in order to receive
the kernel change.  The kernel cannot be changed in an Ubuntu 10.10 based
image by package upgrade.

This is the first image refresh of 10.04 and it includes many updates
since the original release.  In addition to reduced time for system
upgrade on first boot, you may also want to upgrade your base image to
receive the cloud-init or landscape-client updates as they affect
the system's first boot before a system update can be done.

The following is a complete list of changes in the included packages.
