Hello Allen, or anyone else affected,
Accepted livecd-rootfs into jammy-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-
rootfs/2.765.57 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.
If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.
Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in
advance for helping!
N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Title:
build.info is not present on ubuntu-base and ubuntu-oci Jammy images
Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in livecd-rootfs source package in Jammy:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
[ Impact ]
- Currently, every supported ubuntu-base and ubuntu-oci Ubuntu image since Noble contains the file /etc/cloud/build.info which provides information about the build_name and its corresponding serial. Ex:
build_name: server
serial: 20250821
- This file provides crucial information about the image which is used by subsequent processes. For example:
CPC test automation uses this to check if the image is a pro or FIPS image
- Since this file was introduced in Noble, Jammy images do not contain this file
- We would like to add this file into Jammy ubuntu-base and ubuntu-oci images to meet requirements for cloud images
- The proposed plan involves changing the build file in livecd-rootfs to insert the /etc/cloud/build.info file at image build time
[ Test Plan ]
- Check if the current Jammy ubuntu-base and ubuntu-oci images contains the /etc/cloud/build.info file
- With this change, all newly generated ubuntu-base and ubuntu-oci Ubuntu images should contain the above mentioned file
- Check that the file contains the expected content
[ Where problems could occur ]
- If any of the user’s process involves creating a folder with a similar path, ex: if they have an automation which creates a folder cloud in /etc
[ Other Info ]
