nova packages do not include config files when building from github zipballs

[Doug Hellmann]

The ceilometer gating tests are failing (see below) because the copy of nova being installed does not include the sqlalchemy-migrate configuration file for the DB migrations (nova/db/sqlalchemy/migrate_repo/migrate.cfg). The file is present in git, and packages correctly when an sdist or bdist_egg build is run from a git checkout, but is not present in packages built from the github zipball (https://github.com/openstack/nova/zipball/master#egg=nova).

As a temporary work-around we're listing the nova dependency for ceilometer as http://nova.openstack.org/tarballs/nova-2012.2~f2~20120629.14648.tar.gz instead of pointing to the github zipball.

The work-around is working and ceilometer's gating tests are passing again.

More permanent fix. Use this:

http://tarballs.openstack.org/nova/nova-master.tar.gz

Which will always be the latest tarball cut from nova master.
