Remove loki workaround

Upstream problem appears to be fixed by canonical/loki-k8s-operator#453

It appears that there is no 5.20 lxd release anymore, so the tests are failing. Can we use latest/stable instead?

I understand that setting latest/stable will remove some chores from our team. For example, when the release disappears from the upstream like in the mentioned case.

But doesn't it mean that with latest/stable, it could be possible for the OpenFGA charm consumers to accidentally get a new major LXD version, which might be non-compatible with the charm?

According to the LXD docs, current stable 5.x channels are 5.21/stable and 5.0/stable (claimed to be LTS). I would suggest one of these if there are no strong objections.

Agreed, I updated the lxd version. BTW isn't it weird that a release just disappeared or am I stupid?

Thanks for this

I wouldn't expect something like that to happen. Asked the LXD team for comments.

UPD posting the LXD team answers for visibility:

5.21/stable is an LTS release supported for 5 years (or 10 under Ubuntu Pro), so it won't be removed anytime soon.

LXD 5.20/stable was a feature release and as per policy it is only supported until the next feature release. We only keep the feature release channels for the last 2 feature releases, so as LXD 6.2 has just been released, LXD 5.20 was closed. Going forward we wont be using per-feature release tracks to avoid users following them and not getting updates. Instead we are moving to using a per-series track, so 6/stable will contain each 6.x release and will then progress into the next 6.x.x LTS series.

For integration testing you should be using an LTS candidate channel ideally, such as 5.0/candidate, 5.21/candidate, or if you want to test against the latest feature release in a series then latest/candidate. So that regressions are detected before stable release.
