Bug 850628 – app-emulation/cloud-init-22.2-r1: stabilisation (was: no longer installs init scripts for OpenRC)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description FineBeetle 2022-06-08 14:00:08 UTC]

After installation app-emulation/cloud-init-22.2 did not install init.d scripts. While app-emulation/cloud-init-21.2 did install all scripts.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
Package is successfully installed, but no scripts are present in /etc/init.d

Expected Results:  
Expected init scripts like app-emulation/cloud-init-21.2:
/etc/init.d/cloud-config
/etc/init.d/cloud-final
/etc/init.d/cloud-init
/etc/init.d/cloud-init-local

On an OpenRC system this rendenrs cloud-init non functional.

It also breaks diskimage-builder with the element "cloud-init" which fails with the error `rc-update: service `cloud-config' does not exist`.

Oh, this is interesting. I think it's a regression with PEP517 support. I don't think the option handling method used (https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/blob/main/setup.py#L222) is compatible with it.

I'm going to drop back to legacy (non-PEP517) for now.
