Ben Kero e64a6f8c9a Fix add-apt-repository package for precise
Running 'disk-image-create -a amd64 -o precise vm precise' will fail to
build with the following error [1]. To fix this, we should split out the
switch-case to allow base to install the 'software-properties-common'
package.

This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:

Image building tools for OpenStack

diskimage-builder is a flexible suite of components for building a wide-range of disk images, filesystem images and ramdisk images for use with OpenStack.

This repository has the core functionality for building such images, both virtual and bare metal. Images are composed using elements; while fundamental elements are provided here, individual projects have the flexibility to customise the image build with their own elements.

For example:

$ DIB_RELEASE=trusty disk-image-create -o ubuntu-trusty.qcow2 vm ubuntu

will create a bootable Ubuntu Trusty based qcow2 image.

diskimage-builder is useful to anyone looking to produce customised images for deployment into clouds. These tools are the components of TripleO that are responsible for building disk images. They are also used extensively to build images for testing OpenStack itself, particularly with nodepool. Platforms supported include Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL and Fedora.
