Issues in OpenStack packages right now
Dear release team,
I've been able to get OpenStack itself in quite a good shape, as in,
I've tested all of it as a backport to Buster, but in Sid/Unstable right
now, there's some big issues with a few of the packages it uses at it's
core. Namely:
- python3-amqp
- python3-eventlet
It looks like amqp is fixed with version 5.0.3, so that one should be
easy. But Eventlet looks kind of very broken with Python 3. I had a
quick try with the latest upstream (ie: 0.30.0), but it's a very touchy
package, dealing with "monkey patching" Python's internal threading
libs, semaphores, etc.
I'm sorry for the state of things, but I got distracted by lots of other
brokenness which I had to work on:
- Ceph (compat with libbost 1.74.x)
- OpenVSWitch 2.15 (needed for DPDK 20), etc.,
plus repairing the setup of:
- Corosync
- haproxy
- mysql/galera
with my installer (yes, all of these were kind of broken).
So I'm well aware that everything should have been working and been
tested at this point in time, though all I'm asking is a bit (in
advance) understanding for the late fix which are probably coming.
Your thoughts are very much welcome,
Cheers,
Thomas Goirand (zigo)
