Presumably they'll stick to the "S" in LTS and backport this change, but I can understand their desire to test it quickly before diving in.
I also understand limited resources. However, I think a reprioritization is in order here. This bug was not a difficult or time consuming one to solve. Further, in order for people to use Ubuntu in production environments they have to use them in test environments. Vagrant allows us to do this easily, and for people developing software or looking at upgrading infrastructure and looking to test compatibility it's really nice to have a quick to use (and free) server that we can test on. This bug has actually stopped my company from upgrading our main infrastructure to the latest LTS because of our use of vagrant for testing and development. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1561250 Title: Xenial vagrant image is missing its hostname in /etc/hosts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-images/+bug/1561250/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
