Re: cloud-init update

[Tomas Karasek <tomas.karasek@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Alan and all,
I was testing cloud-init 0.7.1 on slc5 (rhel5) and run into some problems:
- there's no prettytable for python26. I wrote a dummy class that can be used instead. Not sure if that's a good way to resolve this.
- some dependency issues in the specfile

Take a look on the patch and let me know what you think.

Tomas

Thank you Tomas,

Having the default action be to use the root user for RHEL
raises security issues. So we specify a default user and
leave the disable_root: 1.
