I don't know how exactly Savanna calls diskimage-builder, but it would indeed make sense for there to be directories for each set of concerns. One just needs to add each directory that should be searched to ELEMENTS_PATH (colon separated). This also makes it possible to override an element by putting a directory earlier in ELEMENTS_PATH, as the first found element for each name wins. _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
