[Bug 2054395] Re: [sru] sos upstream 4.7.0

[Andreas Hasenack]

I pushed the oracular debdiff to a git repo at
https://code.launchpad.net/~ahasenack/ubuntu/+source/sosreport/+git/sosreport/+ref/oracular-patch-pilot-sosreport-update-2054395


I'm slightly concerned with the d/copyright changes. We seem to be removing attributions from others:

For example, the plugin sos/report/plugins/kernelrt.py is still shipped, and has the Red Hat Inc copyright text in it.

I know this change was done in the upstream git repo[1], but one of the
authors is the same one pushing the change here. Previously all debian/*
files were removed[2], but what was restored in [1] is not the same
d/copyright.

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  * A new sosreport version is available upstream, and following the
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SosreportUpdates policy for stable release
  exception we will now SRU the sosreport 4.7.0 upstream release.

  * This release introduces a couple of new plugins as well as bugfixes
  done between the previous Ubuntu 4.5.6 sosreport version and the new
  4.7.0.

  
  [ Test Plan ]

   * The detailed test plan can be found on
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SosreportUpdates and should be tested by a
  couple of users.

  [ Where problems could occur ]

  * Some plugins might stop working, and this will show when running
  sosreport.

  * Uploading to S3 needs the python3-boto3 dependency installed.

  * If there is an issue with a plugin that is causing instability to
  the system, this can be disabled by running 'sosreport -n
  <plugin_name>'.

  * Currently running sos collect with Juju 3 is -not- working, even for
  the current  4.5.6 Ubuntu version, we are working upstream on a fix
  here: https://github.com/sosreport/sos/pull/3422 this is not part of
  the core functionality of sos, and one can still run sos report
  manually on the nodes.

  [ Other Info ]
   
  * Useful plugins that are now part of 4.7.0 and could do some testing:

  * runtime/lxd We have added an LXD runtime so that we can gather data directly from LXD, same with what one would do with k8s.
  * plugins/canonical_livepatch_onprem.py will gather data from livepatch-server
  * plugins/ceph.py add Reef release commands and gather microceph data
  * plugins/coredump.py will capture coredump info from coredumpctl
  * plugins/infinidat.py will gather data from servers that make use if the Infinidat storage solution
  * plugins/kubernetes.py will now gather container information from microk8s
  * plugins/mellanox_firmware.py will gather data from mellanox devices
  * plugins/openstack_masakari.py will gather data from openstack masakari
  * plugins/openstack_masakarimonitors.py will gather data from openstack masakari monitors
  * plugins/vectordev.py will gather the config from vectordev (cos-proxy)
