[2.0RC2] Unable to add a public SSH Key due to lp1604147

This appears to be a result of a Python 3.5.1 -> 3.5.2 update in Xenial. Filed as bug 1604147.

Hello Lee, or anyone else affected,

Accepted maas into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/maas/2.0.0~rc2+bzr5156-0ubuntu1~16.04.2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!

The verification of the Stable Release Update for maas has completed successfully and the package has now been released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.

I still get the same failure:
cdoqa@maas-node-1:~$ maas maas sshkeys create key='ssh-rsa PUB_KEY_TEXT'
{"key": ["Invalid SSH public key: 'PosixPath' object has no attribute 'path'"]}

Looking at the installed code it appears one use of keypath.path was changed (i.e. line 139) but a second was not (i.e. line 149):

cdoqa@maas-node-1:~$ egrep -nre str[\(]keypath /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/provisioningserver
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/provisioningserver/utils/sshkey.py:139: ("setsid", "-w", "ssh-keygen", "-e", "-f", str(keypath)),
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/provisioningserver/utils/sshkey.py:149: ("setsid", "-w", "ssh-keygen", "-i", "-f", str(keypath.path)),

The following maas packages were installed from xenial-updates:

Also still seeing this issue

solved like this.
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/provisioningserver/utils/sshkey.py:149:
("setsid", "-w", "ssh-keygen", "-i", "-f", str(keypath)),

I am also still seeing this error. The workaround in comment #8 does work.

FWIW, this exact fix is in ppa:maas/next. Not sure where else it's meant
to be right now.

MAAS Version 2.0.0 (rc2+bzr5156) still need workaround in comment #8.

the change that @allenap suggested worked perfectly for me. thank you for the workaround!

MAAS RC3 is available in ppa:MAAS/next

this machine went through do-release-upgrade from trusty to xenial after a fresh MAAS installation on 14.04 boot media.

maas/next and a reboot fixes this for me.
