Personally I like /usr/share/python-novaclient as that's very deliberatlely
package centric and if I do that right should make your life as a consumer of
the python-novaclient git repo a little simplier.
so with that in mind I'm thinking something like:
---
[files]
packages =
novaclient
+ data_files =
+ usr/share/python-novaclient/nova.bash_completion =
tools/nova.bash_completion
---
Note[1]: I typed that in to my mail client so the diff will be malformed
Note[2]: I deliberatly used 'usr/' rather than '/usr/' so the config file is in
the install root
Note[3]: For my development systems I can easily add a symlink like:
(cd /usr/share/bash-completions/ ; ln -s
../python-novaclient/nova.bash_completion nova)
Note[4]: the subject of this email is now wrong but we get the idea.
So assuming that somethign like that is acceptable to distribution packages and
python packagers we're winning :)
The last questions are:
- How does pbr handle the case where usr/share/python-novaclient/ dosn't exist ?
- Can I make is do the equivilent of: mkdir -p
$install_root/usr/share/python-novaclient/ somehow?
- At this point I'll propose a change like this for:
python-ceilometerclient python-cinderclient python-glanceclient
python-group-based-policy-client python-heatclient python-ironicclient
python-keystoneclient python-magnetodbclient python-manilaclient
python-manilaclient python-mistralclient python-mistralclient
python-monascaclient python-muranoclient python-muranoclient
python-neutronclient python-novaclient python-senlinclient
python-surveilclient python-tackerclient python-watcherclient
Yours Tony.
