Description

Attempting to follow install instructions for Ubuntu using 4.0.x packages doesn't work, because of a packaging bug:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
cloud-client : Depends: chkconfig but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

As is probably obvious, Debian based distros don't use chkconfig, they use update-rc.d, so this is likely a spurious dependency. However, it does block people from installing the current packages on any Debian-based system.
