As per Neils request, here's a copy of my last mail asking for pre-approval
for uploading openstack-debian-images/1.0.0.
Dear release team,
The package openstack-debian-images, when used with newer version of
Qemu, may generate images which aren't useable on some cloud providers.
The way to fix it is to use the following option:
"-o compat=0.10"
Without this, some users may not understand why their image isn't
useable in some public clouds.
Unfortunately, I didn't understand why when I was using it, it was
failing. Until now: I was using big -O instead of lowercase -o. Since I
have found out, I'd like to upload a fixed version of
openstack-debian-images to Sid and have it in Jessie.
Please let me know if the attached patch is ok, and if I can upload a
new version of openstack-debian-images in Sid. Diff attached.
Cheers,
Thomas Goirand (zigo)
