Title:
Make importing of "local dependencies" consistent
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
Won't Fix
Status in OpenStack Core Infrastructure:
New
Bug description:
This bug was spurred by a conversation resulting from questions
arising from https://review.openstack.org/#/c/80741/:
http://paste.openstack.org/show/73678/
There are a number of places in Nova where a submodule depends on an
external library, but that external library is not (for various
reasons) in the global requirements file. Examples of these kind of
external "local dependencies" include:
* libvirt (used in nova.virt.libvirt)
* guestfs (used in nova.virt.disk.vfs.guestfs)
* evzookeeper, zookeeper, and evzookeeper.membership
* iboot (nova.virt.baremetal)
We should develop some documentation (in HACKING?) that discusses the
appropriate way to import these "local dependencies", and then ensure
each one in above list is done consistently.
