This gets set to docker-build during fuel ISO creation because several tasks cannot be done in the containers during "docker build" phase. We can replace this by moving it to astute.yaml easily enough. > 4) openstack_version - It is just an extraction from openstack.yaml [2]. Without installing nailgun, it's impossible to know what the repo directories should be. Abstracting it buried in some other package makes puppet tasks laborious. Keeping it in a YAML allows it to be accessible.
The rest won't impact Fuel Master deployment significantly.
