https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/commit/143bc9e40f7f33695216db60f73e10a900d1d1cd#diff-eb94d50ed1a0a76032438b4bc5bccb389e9cc03d6766d7881463d8ee75f21f8fR25 introduced the dependency on nc.openbsd, but this binary is missing by default on several distros such as ArchLinux (https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/cloud-init/-/issues/3).

This is a huge breaking change and should be emphasized in the 24.3 release note.

Thanks @AkihiroSuda , we'll update the docs noting this along with python-based solution for those that don't have netcat.
