This has now merged. One fallout I noticed is that pcre-devel is not installed anymore and thus "pcre.h" is not found when building some python files. If that hits you, update your bindep.txt file with: pcre-devel [platform:rpm] libpcre3-dev [platform:dpkg] For details about bindep, see https://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/drivers.html#package-requirements Andreas > NOTE: this does *not* affect devstack jobs (devstack manages it's own > dependencies outside bindep) and if you want them back, it's just a > matter of putting them into the bindep file in your project (and as a > bonus, you have better dependency descriptions for your code). > > We should be able to then remove centos-release-openstack-* from our > centos base images too [5], which will make life easier for projects > such as triple-o who have to work-around that. > > If you have concerns, please reach out either via mail or in > #openstack-infra > > Thank you, > > -i > > [1] https://docs.openstack.org/infra/bindep/ > [2] > https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack-infra/project-config/tree/jenkins/data/bindep-fallback.txt > [3] https://review.openstack.org/519533 > [4] https://review.openstack.org/519534 > [5] https://review.openstack.org/519535 -- Andreas Jaeger aj@{suse.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Graham Norton, HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126 __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
