Official Debian testing OpenStack image news

A few things happened to the testing image, thanks to Steve McIntire, myself, and … some debconf18 foo!

  • The buster/testing image wasn’t generated since last April, this is now fixed. Thanks to Steve for it.
  • The datasource_list is now correct, in both the Stretch and Testing image (previously, cloustack was set too early in the list, which made the image wait 120 seconds for a data source which wasn’t available if booting on OpenStack).
  • The buster/testing image is now using the new package linux-image-cloud-amd64. This made the qcow file shrink from 614 MB to 493 MB. Unfortunately, we don’t have a matching arm64 cloud kernel image yet, but it’s still nice to have this for the amd64 arch.

Please use the new images, and report any issue or suggestion against the openstack-debian-images package.
