This change:

Is attempting to fix a bug where a tempest test fails when "nova-manage
--version" is different from "nova-manage version" when using a RHEL 6
installation rather than devstack.

Pavel points out an RDO bug that was filed back in April to address the
issue: _https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=952811_

That RDO bug hasn't gotten any attention though (I wasn't aware of it
when I reported the launchpad bug).

So my question is, is this worth changing in Tempest or should we expect
that "nova-manage --version" will always equal "nova-manage version"?
  I'm not even really sure how they are getting their values, one
appears to be coming from the python distribution and one from the rpm
(looks like argparse must do something there).

My opinion is that "nova-manage version" and "nova-manage --version" should return the same thing, because user interfaces should look like they were designed on purpose, and nobody would intentionally design those two almost identical commands to return different things. I think it's a bug that needs to be fixed in "nova-manage" rather than something Tempest should have to work around.
