Hi Christian,
Why is openvswitch included?
Because we need it to resolve package dependencies (Neutron-vswitch subpackage requires it), and we would like to have package repositories that are self-contained and where all packages in it can be installed. We have a jenkins job that tests this: http://ci.opensuse.org/view/OpenStack/job/openstack-repocheck/ If there is a cinder volume plugin (for example) that requires ceph and we have it packaged, I agree that we should add it to the repo and fix up requires. If not, then I think it is more agile to have it separate from OpenStack, because you can decide to use the latest and greatest Ceph with the stable OpenStack or you can decide to use the stable Ceph with the latest and greatest OpenStack.
I think it would be nice to have tested versions of ceph and openvswitch in the release repositories (like C:O:G) and to also have workable versions in C:O:M.
I have no strong opinion about this, although I more freedom of choice better than limited freedom (see above). Greetings, Dirk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-cloud+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-cloud+owner@opensuse.org
