I'm marking this bug fixed by nature of correct xenial boot on openstack and lxd.
The bug was opened on another distro and related to a path that is not common in cloud-init on ubuntu.

The fix seems straight forward enough.

I'm not happy with lack of positive validation of the fix, but that is all we have.
