Having trouble with the required action mentioned in the email. I've attempted it on 1 of our multiple production instances. Would like some guidance before proceeding.

$ sudo apt-get update ; succeeds.

$ sudo apt-get install -y cloud-init fails.

root@baccout:/home/ubuntu# sudo apt-get install -y cloud-initReading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
E: Couldn't find package cloud-init

Looks like our source list is out of date:

cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic main universe
deb-src http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic main universe
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic-updates main universe
deb-src http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic-updates main universe
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu karmic-security main universe
deb-src http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu karmic-security main universe
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic multiverse
deb-src http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic multiverse
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic-updates multiverse
deb-src http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic-updates multiverse
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu karmic-security multiverse
deb-src http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu karmic-security multiverse

How should I proceed?

I did run the 2nd procedure.

$ echo 'Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth "0";' | sudo tee /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99-no-pipelining

Can you confirm it did what it is supposed to?

root@baccout:/home/ubuntu# cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99-no-pipelining
Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth "0";

    Hi Ken,

    Ubuntu Karmic aka 9.10 is very old (and unsupported by Ubuntu by the way! you should upgrade to 10.04 LTS) so there are no cloud-init packages.

    The second step is fine and prevents any errors on apt-get update.

    So you should be good by setting the Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth "0"; setting.

    Thanks for the quick response! I'll go forward with disabling http pipeline on all the servers until I have a chance to upgrade them all to 10.04 LTS

    Thanks Jonathan..
