Pf9-Hostagent Removes Sudo-LDAP Package Post Upgrade.

Problem

Upgrading the Ubuntu host makes the pf9-hostagent remove sudo-ldap package and installs the sudo package. This is affecting the customers who manage sudo privileges with LDAP

Environment

• Platform9 Managed OpenStack - v4.4 and Higher
• LDAP Users
• pf9-hostagent

Cause

sudo and sudo-ldap are conflicting packages and only 1 can be present on a host. On upgrades, when pf9-hostagent finds that the sudo package is missing it tries to install the sudo package which intern removes the sudo-ldap package from the system.

Resolution

Upgrade to v5.1 which contains the fix.
