We've currently just disabled the pylint gate tests, and I've posted a patch for neutron to resolve the issue. Looks like there was a similar patch already up for review as well, though it only catches one of our uses of novaclient. There's still a bit of an issue that there is no version-neutral way to import the 'contrib' stuff like there is for 'client'. So: from novaclient.v1_1.contrib import server_external_events has to become from novaclient.v2.contrib import server_external_events which doesn't work on previous versions of novaclient. It's possible to hack around it using importutils, but it's pretty ugly.
