Bug Description
[Impact]
This package is provided by Google for installation within guests that run on Google Compute Engine. It is part of a collection of tools and daemons, that ensure that the Ubuntu images published to GCE run properly on their platform.
Cloud platforms evolve at a rate that can't be handled in six-month increments, and they will often develop features that they would like to be available to customers who don't want to upgrade from earlier Ubuntu releases. As such, updating this package to more recent upstream releases is required within all Ubuntu releases, so they continue to function properly in their environment.
[Test Case]
When a new version of this package is uploaded to -proposed, the following will be done:
* an image based on -proposed will be built for GCE and published to the ubuntu-
* the CPC team will write new automated tests to cover new testable functionality (if any) in the new package
* the automated testing that the CPC team normally runs against GCE images before they are published will be run against the -proposed image
* the GCE team will be asked to validate that the new package addresses the issues it is expected to address, and that the image passes their internal image validation.
If all the testing indicates that the image containing the new package is acceptable, verification will be considered to be done.
[Other Information]
This bug is used for tracking of releasing the new upstream version for all supported series, as per the approved policy mentioned in the following MRE:
https:/
The updated package is not built for riscv64 on Focal, but it is not used on riscv64 either, thus please release the SRU without the risc64 binaries.
The package does not build for powerpc on Xenial, but this is OK since it is not used on powerpc either.

Hello Balint, or anyone else affected,

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- groovy to verification- done-groovy. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed- groovy. 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/ PerformingSRUVe rification . Thank you in advance for helping!
