I don't think it's quite so bad as it seems, in terms of removal. Taking out qpid-python and related packages just leaves nova as a build-dependent. According to openstack upstream [1] qpid is not the default messaging backend, and that is also true in the default nova configuration file. So I presume nova b-d on qpid-python so it can be an optional backend. I'm going to: - try building nova without python-qpid as a b-d - get in touch with the openstack packagers on irc to see if this is something we can do without breaking people. -- Jonathan Wiltshire j...@debian.org Debian Developer http://people.debian.org/~jmw 4096R: 0xD3524C51 / 0A55 B7C5 1223 3942 86EC 74C3 5394 479D D352 4C51
