This is a terrific summary which really makes my task of confirming and following up much more manageable. Just by way of preempting the "its neutron's fault" pile-on, just in case anyone is tempted, a few facts: We were paying attention, as it happens to the sphinx pin. Patches to neutron and neutronclient have merged: http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/neutron/tree/test-requirements.txt#n9 http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/python-neutronclient/tree/test-requirements.txt#n9 The addition of the -U flag for pip install in tox.ini for neutronclient https://review.openstack.org/#/c/60825/4 is in the check queue, it tripped on the sphinx pin for neutronclient. Here is the one for neutron: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/60825/4 I've just alerted all neutron-core to refrain from +A'ing until these are merged. We had been tracking 1253896 quite closely and I at least was working wtih the belief we had done the work we needed to do for that bug. Since it now comes to light that I am in error with regards to neutron's responsibility to 1253896, I welcome all interested parties to #openstack-neutron so that we can again work together to submit a patch that addresses this issue. Thanks Sean, Anita. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJSqcpnAAoJELmKyZugNFU0X40H/0GX6zpTEdyQJVgDLDmOlo7v X5W3ioRfjQL28Rm+ISAoq/CTHuekggimhIsTz/TIJpYeS+657Bg+rPE2BE4S6Aag IdyMOQcMVfjUxcit9UTssMueSsw7VcnLJSbi7hEcBAtIRkf6IA2gxZ/lvrx7VmD5 Odfg3mdUrnckVdv7Y6/7tWCMY+3sXuqLQwat3a83mP13jRjgbQw9QnVhib9yoHg3 +qJnDoH9BT3+PWig42u7893qaasCzqFiiyjlGnjg9YznrRRZvq0Szwqux/JgzWy4 ypmX5Xo4ueZGuLMpmb2Sb8RbE83q3u9nx15nTWFdC+IUxa12DnX1sid27YCDva4= =oVW8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
