Public bug reported:
The Trusty Tahir Hardware Enablement Stack for Ubuntu 12.04 is available
and being aggressively promoted to existing Ubuntu 12.04 deployments
running now End-of-Life Hardware Enablement Stacks. However, the linux-
cloud-tools packages have not been made available to Precise users. This
package was newly introduced in Trusty Tahir and contains "cloud
specific" tooling associated with a given kernel version, separate from
the general tools provided in the linux-tools packages. Right now, this
package only contains Hyper-V specific daemons and utilities.
The result of this is that on updating to the Trusty HWE the userspace hv-kvp-daemon Hyper-V daemon previously provided by the linux-tools packages is no longer present and will fail to start when the hv-kvp-daemon-init package attempts to do so:
hv_kvp_daemon not available for kernel 3.13.0-30
This is in my view a very serious issue as it risks potentially breaking
Hyper-V deployments of Ubuntu 12.04 which have either updated to the
Trusty HWE or will be installed via the 12.04.05 installation media (the
latter has yet to be released). From my brief look at the packaging
situation the linux-cloud-tools packages depend on a newer version of
sysv-rc than is currently available for 12.04, though, this is the only
unmet dependency and I'm unsure if the newer sysv-rc is technically
required or was just pinned against the release that Ubuntu 14.04
shipped with.
** Affects: linux-meta (Ubuntu)
