Noa Resare commented on CLOUDSTACK-964:
---------------------------------------

I'm not sure I'm following. The code in the python subproject seems to be used 
by the various cloud-setup- tools (such as cloud-setup-agent, 
cloud-setup-management, cloud-setup-databases). marvin on the other hand seems 
to be a set of modules used for unit testing.

> There are two toplevel python modules that is part of cloudstack, named 
> 'coud_utils' and 'cloudutils' respectively. This seems very much like an 
> artifact of the development of the project rather than actual design. 
> I propose we make things a bit more straightforward by putting all modules 
> into a single namespace with a name easily derived from the project name, 
> such as 'cloudstack', and update import statements accordingly.
> So, is this an incompatible change to a published API or not? I would claim 
> it is not, and the fact that the python modules gets installed into the 
> system python path by default is just a side effect of people doing packaging 
> not being up to date on how private python packaging is normally done in 
> Debian.
