About the growpart issue that we talked about, I proposed a backport[1] for "cloud-utils" on #784004. I don't know if it will be accepted (and I do remember that you don't like to rely on fixes from backports, that's why I didn't asked you to sponsor it), but this may be the only solution at the moment, for something that have been annoying us for quite a few months. To me using backports to Jessie is acceptable; 2 years ago we had to use backports then to get started, so I think that as this hits backports, we should have a fix. I noted from another of your emails... (below) I've also noted that this backport alone wouldn't solve the problem with this AMI, because it is partitioned with GPT. In this case, we'll need the command "gsdisk" from the package "gdisk". Yep - thats awesome. As soon as we have this in backports, then I'll build with GPT disks, gsdisk. I think after we've been via backports we can possibly recommend it to include in a point release. Thanks Tiago. --
