Comment 4 for bug 1494476

I've got a confirmation that we need this fixed also for 1.24, as this will potentially prevent MAAS 1.9 SRU into trusty (e.g. if juju 1.24 is in trusty, it won't work properly with MAAS 1.9). Michael, please make sure you backport this to 1.24 as well, since the code changes in that part of the maas provider should be minimal, it should be easy to backport it.
