Will Ubuntu 24.04 cloud-image release KVM version

Project Discussion cloud-init

Starting in Mantic, 23.10, linux-kvm variants were dropped

  1. the linux-kvm kernel variant was dropped, merging with linux-virtual. linux-kvm is now a transitional package: Ubuntu – Details of package linux-kvm in mantic
  2. the cloud-images then dropped the linux-kvm builds entirely, as the only difference was the kernel. Minimal images also moved to installing linux-virtual. release note: Mantic Minotaur Release Notes (sorry, no anchor, but searching 'kvm" will find it)
