Bug Description

Suds is a library which isn't maintained upstream. Please switch to something else. As you may have seen, someone filed a bug against the python-nova package in Debian because of this:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=788080

As mentioned on the bug report: Please consider to migrate your package to use a maintained soap library (like pysimplesoap, at the time of writing in NEW).

woops, bad cut/past. I meant cinder of course, not nova (nova also has the issue)

It's not clear we can make this change for kilo, but since we've already done it for liberty I assume that's what you meant by opening the bug.

Hi Doug. I think you missunderstood. suds-jurko isn't more actively maintained than suds, the upstream maintainer is *ALSO* dead, so we need a better replacement. pysimplesoap is one of the possible alternatives.
