screen is installed via packages and devstack don't assume it's already installed : https://github.com/openstack-dev/devstack/blob/master/files/apts/general > Frankly, this devstack stuff is just a big hack.

I haven't tested the xen support but for the default install, I have quickly spawned a VM on my laptop, downloaded devstack and ran it twice and except having to kill screen[1] between the two run it was actually the right thing (ie: redone the configuration). > I don't think anyway that if you are a developer, you will be working on > absolutely all packages (nova, glance, keystone, swift, quantum...) that > we have available in Openstack.

(albeit it does indeed check-in nova currently for all services which is a bug that need to be fixed). Chmouel.
