+1. Its relatively easy to write some cron jobs that look at your images and tell you want containers have out of date rpms and need upgrading. its much harder when there are pip packages/virtualenvs involved. Having a nice way to let ops know (or automation know) that there are potential non system packages involved brings needed attention to them.

Maybe we need a WARNING to the stdout to tell the operators. -- Regards, Jeffrey Zhang Blog: http://xcodest.me __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
