Client does not respect OS_REGION_NAME (or --os-region-name)

[Lars Kellogg-Stedman]

The "openstack" command does not appear to respect OS_REGION_NAME. I have compute services in two regions; the default ("RegionOne") and another called "Havana". The "nova" command line client behaves like this when OS_REGION_NAME is unspecified:

    $ nova list
    ERROR: AmbiguousEndpoints: [{u'adminURL': u'http://192.168.122.110:8774/v2/a4c4f915bf024710a1203f207aa3e4d3', u'region': u'RegionOne', u'id': u'300d2fbe3817458fb6be4d2d615b5edb', 'serviceName': u'nova', u'internalURL': u'http://192.168.122.110:8774/v2/a4c4f915bf024710a1203f207aa3e4d3', u'publicURL': u'http://192.168.122.110:8774/v2/a4c4f915bf024710a1203f207aa3e4d3'}, {u'adminURL': u'http://192.168.122.198:8774/v2/a4c4f915bf024710a1203f207aa3e4d3', u'region': u'Havana', u'id': u'598415ff5375421fb417744c54a3276b', 'serviceName': u'nova', u'internalURL': u'http://192.168.122.198:8774/v2/a4c4f915bf024710a1203f207aa3e4d3', u'publicURL': u'http://192.168.122.198:8774/v2/a4c4f915bf024710a1203f207aa3e4d3'}]

And like this with "--os-region-name RegionOne":

    $ nova --os-region-name RegionOne

And with "--os-region-name Havana":

    $ nova --os-region-name Havana list
    +--------------------------------------+-------+--------+------------+-------------+----------------------------------+

    +--------------------------------------+-------+--------+------------+-------------+----------------------------------+

On the other hand, the "openstack" command always seems to reference
"RegionOne", and ignores a region set either on the command line or as
an environment variable.

With no explicit region:

    $ openstack -q server list

With "--os-region-name Havana":

    $ openstack -q --os-region-name Havana server list

With "OS_REGION_NAME=Havana":

    $ OS_REGION_NAME=Havana openstack -q server list

For reference:

    $ openstack -q endpoint list

Was this problem fixed somehow? I cannot reproduce.

I'm assuming fixed at some point. Reopen if you can reproduce.
