Zookeeper package not found on centos/rhel 7.0/fedora23

[Federico Ressi]

Running devstack/stack.sh script fails because of zookeeper is not available.

2015-11-06 13:59:12.619 | Package pyxattr-0.5.1-5.el7.x86_64 already installed and latest version
2015-11-06 13:59:12.619 | No package zookeeper available.
2015-11-06 13:59:12.619 | Package acl-2.2.51-12.el7.x86_64 already installed and latest version

This problem was probably introduced on master branch with this change:

I tested which package is not available on Centos 7.0:

[vagrant@node devstack]$ sudo yum install zookeeperd
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: centos.crazyfrogs.org
 * epel: epel.besthosting.ua
 * extras: centose5.centos.org

No package zookeeperd available.
Error: Nothing to do

Simple workaround: disable service zookeeper in local.conf

  disable_service zookeeper

Well, I am also facing the same issue and this seems to me a bug in devstack as well.

I do have zookeeper packages on my fedora23 however, still I am facing the issue.

# yum list | grep zookeeper
collectd-zookeeper.x86_64 5.5.1-2.fc23 @updates
python-zookeeper.x86_64 3.4.6-14.fc23 @updates
zookeeper.x86_64 3.4.6-14.fc23 @updates
zookeeper-devel.x86_64 3.4.6-14.fc23 @updates
zookeeper-java.x86_64 3.4.6-14.fc23 @updates
zookeeper-javadoc.noarch 3.4.6-14.fc23 @updates
archaius-zookeeper.noarch 0.7.3-3.fc23 updates
golang-github-samuel-go-zookeeper-devel.noarch
zookeeper.i686 3.4.6-14.fc23 updates
zookeeper-devel.i686 3.4.6-14.fc23 updates

@Federico: One can use the workaround "disable_service zookeeper" in local.conf only when he doesn't want to use sahara services. However, if someone wants to use sahara, disabling of zookeeper service won't help.
