Hi Shawn,

thanks for the report and for your patience.

Indeed, as mentioned in the discussion on GitHub, what is needed is an update
of cloud-init, followed by a backport.

The problem on my side is that I am unable to secure moments where I know I can
concentrate for one hour or two, to work on this task.  You may seem me active
on that list, but I post from the train (like now) or in the evenings where I
am tired, or when my baby sleeps and can wake up any time, ...  So it is hard
for me to work on cloud-init, where I do not want to make errors.  Help is very
welcome.

Have a nice day,

Charles
