Can one of you please promote 1:2.3+dfsg-5ubuntu9.4~cloud3 to cloud-
archive main?  It looks like 1:2.3+dfsg-5ubuntu9.4~cloud2 is still
there.

Thanks.

Title:
  qemu core dumps when unable to allocate ram for new virtual machine

Status in Ubuntu Cloud Archive:
  Fix Released
Status in Ubuntu Cloud Archive kilo series:
  Fix Released
Status in Ubuntu Cloud Archive liberty series:
  Fix Committed
Status in Ubuntu Cloud Archive mitaka series:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Qemu available in the kilo-staging cloud archive will cause an abort
  which will generate a core dump, if there is not enough memory
  available to satisfy creation of the new Virtual Machine.

  This becomes more critical if this happens over and over in highly
  resource constrained environments, as the core dumps start filling up
  the disk.

  This is resolved with upstream commit
  f8ed85ac992c48814d916d5df4d44f9a971c5de4

  I'm opening this case, while I decide if it's worthwhile to re-spin
  qemu to fix this issue.
