Alan Cutter commented on LIBCLOUD-662:
--------------------------------------
Thanks for the quick response.
These were just quick fixes to get libcloud running, I wouldn't advise using
them as actual production code. Someone more familiar with libclouds internals
would be better suited than I to remove the dependencies unmet by the AppEngine

>attempting to read a file in the user's home directory.
> Python Libcloud for GCE does not support Google AppEngine
