[Bug 1822341] Re: [FFE][SRU] Please add ubuntu-wsl binary package

[Adam Conrad]

This hand-crafted patch is wrong.  The way the seeds are laid out,
ubuntu-wsl should depend on exactly one package, not dozens.  STRUCTURE
is not an include hierarchy (if it was, all of minimal would be in
desktop, for instance), it describes inheritance.  "wsl: minimal" means
"if it's in minimal, don't include it in wsl, so I don't have the same
packages listed twice".  wsl installs should install minimal (as *all*
Ubuntu installations do) and ubuntu-wsl.

Title:
  [FFE][SRU] Please add ubuntu-wsl binary package

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  * The newly added wsl seed includes the packages to be installed by default on Ubuntu running in the Windows Subsystem for Linux. In addition to the packages in ubuntu-minimal the added ubuntu-wsl metapackage depends on on utilities useful only in the WSL environment.

  [Test Case]
  * The package is a new metapackage, just try installing it

  [Fix]
  * The change add the new package and also adds the wsl seed to watch.

  [Regression potential]
  * Nothing, it is a new meta package, with no breaks, etc.

  [Other Info]
  * Please consider accepting this new binary package to Disco, because it needs to be SRU-d to all supported releases. The ubuntu-wsl metapackage will allow adding new packages for WSL installations only when more integration utilities become available.
