The application is not compatible with Ubuntu 14.04

[Martin Paulo]

When I try to create the all-in-one instance using our (NeCTAR) Ubuntu 14.04 image the faafo.client fails when using to pip install the requirements.txt file.

In order to get it to install once it has failed I need to do the following:
 pip install --upgrade pbr
 pip install pytz
 pip install positional
 pip install iso8601

Once that is done the pip install of the requirements.txt file will successfully complete.

[Martin Paulo (martin-paulo)]

The default NeCTAR image has python-pbr version 0.7.0 installed on it.
The pip install -r requirements.txt command does not replace this version with the later version required by the application. Hence there are two options: to either uninstall the python-pbr package via apt-get, or to do something along the lines of
sudo pip install --upgrade pbr
before running pip install -r requirements.txt...

    Added fix required to run on Ubuntu 14.04

    When run with the NeCTAR Ubuntu 14.04 image the pip install of
    the requirements.txt file fails because:

    * pbr is already installed, and is an earlier version that that required
    * there are other python packages required that are not installed.

    This fix uses pip to upgrade the pbr version installed, and adds
    the required packages to the requirments.txt file.
