Siim Põder commented on LIBCLOUD-602:
-------------------------------------

I probably had the same problem and I think it's a documentation problem. 
gce.list_images() will return an empty list unless you have created images 
specifically in this project - the "global" images are not listed. You need to 
know and list specific other project names to find the public images.

gcloud/gcutil take care of this and the docs mention this only in passing, but 
see:
https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/operating-systems

The projects (such as debian-cloud) that gce.list_images() needs to be called 
fro are listed in the resource urls.
