I just stumbled because of the patch "0001-Use-exec_dirs-for-rootwrap-commands.patch" in the package openstack-quantum (added by Dirk). The patch didn't work, because it was an deprecated version of the patch, and quantum-rootwrap refused to work. Result: all Quantum services refused to work. At the moment I don't like it that there are patches in C:O:M, changing something in the sources of an OpenStack service, without an open review quest in the upstream. And even if there is an open review request: I think that it's not necessary to manually add patches to C:O:M changing something essential. We should simply upstream all our changes and after a successful review we automatically have it in the master tarball. Normally the review process in the upstream is very fast. Sure, if we have to change something very SUSE specific we can use a patch. But we should discuss the usage of patches inside C:O:M before adding them to the packages. And we should never change essential functionality of components.
