Hey!
I have a patch to fix the RAM requirement on ubuntu (for 16.04, 18.04
and 18.10) that I pushed at
https://gitlab.com/didrocks/osinfo-db/commit/67d8b0a34771b0e0aa8736cb707f8028e82c0bf3.
As this is only one commit, I have enclosed a git format patch version
to that email.
What triggered that discussion was
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/osinfo-db/+bug/1796037, which
makes the default RAM size not being able to install ubuntu. The ubuntu
desktop team decided to bump the requirement to 2Gb (which was the GNOME
Boxes fallback for those versions when the file definition wasn't included).
Thanks a lot in advance.
Cheers,
Didier

Subject: [PATCH] Bump minimal ram requirement for ubuntu to 2Gb
The ubuntu images needs 2Gb to end their installation process with
pre-seeded snap. Otherwise, the machine OOM and deadlock during install.
We weren't impacted previously as shipping an old osinfo-db version,
which didn't have the distribution specific requirements, and thus,
fallbacked to GNOME Boxes default which is 2Gb.
