setuptools 8 breaks python-openstackclient

[Jesse Pretorius]

If setuptools 8.0, 8.0.1, 8.0.2 is installed, python-openstackclient no longer works. It would seem that the way the version checking operates has changed since setuptools 7.x

The symptom is:

(openstack) image list
python-glanceclient 0.14.2.2.gb126351 is installed but python-glanceclient>=0.9.0 is required by []
(openstack) project list
python-glanceclient 0.14.2.2.gb126351 is installed but python-glanceclient>=0.9.0 is required by []

The only workaround I have at present is to downgrade setuptools to 7.x

A few other projects are hitting this issue, see http://openstack.markmail.org/search/?q=#query:%20list%3Aorg.openstack.lists.openstack-dev+page:1+mid:rh6en53bdwsibqha+state:results for more details, I'll keep this as Confirmed for now, but not sure what we can do from our end.

[Dean Troyer (dtroyer)]

This is totally due to the setuptools release over the weekend and is being worked by the OpenStack infrastructure team (pbr) and dstufft (pip/setuptools). The indicated issue is due to the git sha in the python-glanceclient version.

I'm closing this for OSC as there is nothing we can do, unless the ultimate fix requires changes to global requirements to get the correct updated pbr. Will reopen if that is the case.

Not sure why the linkage is not working, but the review to pin this in openstack-ansible is here:

    pin setuptools to 7.0 to workaround brokenness in 8.x

    setuptools 8.0 (and subsequently 8.0.1, 8.0.2) were released over the
    weekend. This introduces a breaking change whereby python packages
    installed from SHA, rather than with a proper release version, do not
    have their version numbers parsed properly due to the appended sha.
    Eg python-glanceclient 0.14.2.2.gb126351

    This commit:

    - pins setuptools to 7.0, to workaround this issue until a fix
    is made upstream, inside the global requirements.txt

    - removes package installations of python-setuptools and
    python-pip which had potential to further conflict.

    - removes the list pip_common_packages from the all_common vars file

Review: https://review.openstack.org/149213
Reason: This patch was an investigation to figure out what needed to go into the branch in order to get the gate operational. Now that we know, we can cherry-pick the patches individually.
