[Bug 1076031] Re: ubuntu-cloud options parsing bugs

[Serge Hallyn]

** Description changed:

+ ===================
+ SRU Justification:
+ 1. Impact: the ubuntu-cloud template mis-handles some arguments.
+ 2. Development fix: fix the getopt argument handling 
+ 3. Stable fix: same as development fix
+ 4. Test case:
+    sudo lxc-create -t ubuntu-cloud -n delme -- -L -a i386
+    file /var/lib/lxc/delme/rootfs/bin/bash
+    # you'll see it is a amd64 binary, not i386
+ 5. Regression potential: if done wrong, argument parsing in
+    the ubuntu-cloud template could be made wrong in more ways
+    than it already is.  Damage would be confined to ubuntu-cloud
+    containers
+ ===================
+ 
  These are tiny bugs which should be fixed on the next upload:
  
  1. the 'u:' is missing in getopt statement to match '--userdata'
  2. The case statement for '-L|--no_locales' does a 'shift 2' but should shift 1.
