[Bug 1361241] Re: maas automatic upgrade prompts for action due to change in /etc/maas/maas_local_settings.py

[Diogo Matsubara]

** Description changed:

  Steps to reproduce:
  
  1. Using a pristine precise image, install maas:  $ sudo apt-get install maas
  2. Add cloud tools archive: $ sudo add-apt-repository cloud-archive:tools
  3. $ sudo apt-get update
  4. Dist upgrade with -y so any prompts should be assumed as yes: $ sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade
  
  What should happen:
  
  MAAS should be updated from 1.2+bzr1373+dfsg-0ubuntu1~12.04.5 to
  1.4+bzr1693+dfsg-0ubuntu2.3~ctools0
  
  What happens:
  
  You get an apt prompt due to changes to /etc/maas/maas_local_settings.py
  
  Setting up maas-region-controller (1.4+bzr1693+dfsg-0ubuntu2.3~ctools0) ...
  Installing new version of config file /etc/maas/maas-http.conf ...
  
  Configuration file `/etc/maas/maas_local_settings.py'
-  ==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation.
-  ==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
-    What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are:
-     Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version
-     N or O  : keep your currently-installed version
-       D     : show the differences between the versions
-       Z     : start a shell to examine the situation
-  The default action is to keep your current version.
