** Description changed:

- file: 50-cloud-init.cfg wiped of it's initial (working) configuration
- after a standard apt-upgrade was issued.

+ [Impact]
+ Upgrades of cloud-init on official Ubuntu 16.04 and 17.10 images
+ running on IBM public cloud will be unreachable after a reboot.
+ 
+ This is because cloud-init incorrectly recognizes the newly added
+ 'IBMCloud' as the datasource to use and skips use of the previously used
+ ConfigDrive or NoCloud datasource.  This is because
+ a.) Official 16.04 and 17.10 images of Ubuntu have seeded data
+  in their /var/lib/cloud/seed/ directory that was used on first
+  boot and should be continued to be used.
+ b.) IBMCloud's datasource in some scenarios appears looks similar
+  to that of Config Drive.  The version of cloud-init in xenial and
+  artful checks to disable config-drive in order to identify the
+  IBMCloud datasource.  That should not happen unless the IBMCloud
+  datasource is enabled, which is configured off in those images.
+ 
+ The fix is to continue using the existing datasource on those images.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+  * Launch an image on IBM public cloud.
+  * add -proposed
+  * apt-get update && apt-get install cloud-init
+  * reboot
+  * ssh back in
+ 
+ If you are able to ssh back in, then this bug has been fixed.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ This specific fix is tightly contained down the path involved in
+ IBM cloud.   The most likely failure scenario would be failure
+ in 18.04 images which do not have the additional datasources built
+ into the images.
