Bug Description

[Impact] GCE is not supported by Cloud-init for 12.04. This SRU is a cloud-enablement request.

[Test Case]
1. Build image from -proposed, upload it to GCE, OpenStack, Windows Azure, EC2 and Joyent
   - confirm that non-GCE Clouds boot
   - confirm that /var/lib/cloud-init.log is clean of GCE Datasource errors
   - confirm that GCE boots and is accessable via SSH
   - confirm that GCE /var/log/cloud-init.log is clean of datasource errors
2. Upgrade cloud-init on EC2, OpenStack, Windows Azure, and Joyent
   - install from -proposed
   - reboot instance
   - confirm that GCE DS is ignored

[Regression Potential] Low for existing instances. The GCE Datasource will be enabled by default. However, for existing instances Cloud-init is configured to use a white list of datasources: the new GCE Datasource will be ignored.

The is also low for new images. The GCE Datasource is the final Datasource, meaning that it will only be claimed if no other Datasource is used.

Hello Ben, or anyone else affected,

Accepted cloud-init into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/0.6.3-0ubuntu1.15 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!
